Connecting a DVD/Blu-Ray player/Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) via HDMI

HDMI enables you to view HD (High Definition) content. This connection can only be made if there is an HDMI Output

connector on the external device.
1. Connect an HDMI Cable

between the HDMI IN

(1, 2 or 3) jack on the

TV and the HDMI jack

on the DVD/Blu-Ray

player/Satellite receiver

(Set-Top Box).

What is HDMI?

• HDMI(High-Definition Multimedia Interface), is an interface that enables the

transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable.

• The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size and

has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed.

Each DVD/Blu-Ray player/Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) has a different back panel

configuration.
The TV may not output sound and pictures may be displayed with abnormal color

when DVD players/Satellite receivers supporting HDMI versions older than 1.3 are

connected. When connecting an older HDMI cable and there is no sound, connect the

HDMI cable to the HDMI IN 2 jack and the audio cables to the DVI IN (HDMI2)

[R-AUDIO-L] jacks on the back of the TV. If this happens, contact the company that

provided the DVD player/Satellite receiver to confirm the HDMI version, then request an

upgrade.
HDMI cables that are not 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen display.
