About HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports both video
and audio on a single digital connection for use with DVD players,
DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV devices. HDMI was developed
to provide the technologies of High Bandwidth Digital Content
Protection (HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI) in
one specification. HDCP is used to protect digital content
transmitted and received by DVI-compliant or HDMI-compliant
displays. HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced, or
high-definition video plus standard to multi-channel surround-
sound audio. HDMI features included uncompressed digital
video, a bandwidth of up to 2.2 gigabytes per second (with HDTV
signals), one connector (instead of several cables and connectors),
and communication between the AV source and AV devices such
as DTVs.
