Supplemental Information on TV Inputs and Outputs
The Basic Owner’s Guide supplied with your TV contains connection diagrams
showing how to use most of these jacks.
1. HDMI®Inputs (High-Definition Multimedia
Interface)
The HDMI inputs support uncompressed standard and
high-definition digital video formats, bitstream Dolby
Digital 5.1, and PCM digital stereo audio. These inputs
are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection)
compliant.
Mitsubishi recommends you use high-speed HDMI
cables to connect newer source devices incorporating
HDMI technology. High-speed cables bring you the full
benefits of Deep Color.
These HDMI inputs can also accept digital DVI video
signals. To connect a device’s DVI output to the TV’s
HDMI input, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable plus
an analog audio cable. Connect the audio cable to the
DVI/PC AUDIO INPUT jack on the TV to receive audio
from your DVI device.

HDMI Cable Categories
HDMI cables are available as Standard and High-Speed
types.
• High-Speed HDMI Cables. Blu-ray players, newer
DVD players, video games, 3D content, and set-top
boxes require High-Speed HDMI cables, suitable
for clock frequencies up to 340 MHz or data rates
of up to 10.2 gigabits per second. Use high-speed
cables for 1080p HD signals carrying extended color
encodings (i.e., 30 or more bits, also called Deep
Color). High-Speed HDMI cables are also suitable for
standard HDTV signals.
• Standard HDMI Cables. Standard HDMI cables
may be unmarked. They are suitable for standard
HDTV 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signals with 8-bit color
depth. Use Standard HDMI cables for clock fre-
quencies up to 74.25 MHz or data rates of up to 2.23
gigabits per second.

DVD Image Definitions
Image information may be stated on the DVD
case. Some DVDs support both formats
described below.
Anamorphic (or Enhanced for WideScreen TV)
Indicates DVDs recorded to show widescreen
images properly on 16:9 TV sets using the TV’s
Standard format mode (recommended).
Non-Anamorphic (or 4:3, 1.33:1, Letter Box, or
Full Screen)
Indicates DVDs recorded for viewing on squar-
ish TV screens. They may be full screen (4:3 or
1.33:1) which crops movies to fit the narrow TV, or
letter box, which adds black top and bottom bars.
Picture Shape and Display Formats
Format Definitions
Use the FORMAT key to apply the formats described here.
Standard: The full-screen format used by HDTV
signals. Use this format to display anamorphic DVDs
with a 1.78:1 or 1.85:1 aspect ratio. Anamorphic DVDs
with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio are displayed correctly but
with top and bottom black bars. Squarish (4:3) images
are stretched evenly from side to side. Available for all
signals.
Expand: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by
cropping the top and bottom; useful for reducing the
letter box top and bottom bars of non-anamorphic DVD
images.
Zoom: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by crop-
ping the sides, top, and bottom to eliminate black bars.
• 480i/480p and SD 4:3 signals: Eliminates top and
bottom bars on anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1
aspect ratio.
• 720p, 1080i, SD 16:9, and HD signals: Eliminates
bars added to squarish 4:3 images.
Stretch: Stretches a squarish 4:3 image across the
screen to display the entire image with less distortion
than the Standard format.
Stretch Plus: Similar to Stretch, but minimizes distor-
tion on the sides by expanding the picture to crop off
portions of the top and bottom. Use to adjust the
vertical position of the picture.
Narrow: Displays narrow 4:3 images in their origi-
nal shape. Adds black side bars to fill the screen.
Wide Expand: Enlarges the picture, cropping the
image on both sides. Removes or reduces black
side bars added to narrow images converted to
16:9 signals for digital broadcast.
Note: All high-definition channels send wides-
creen (16:9) signals, but not all programming was
created for the widescreen format. The broad-
caster may stretch the image or add side bars to
fill the widescreen area.

• Analog text-service options display a large
black or gray box on the screen when no
caption signal is being broadcast.
• The content of captions is determined by the
broadcaster. If captions show strange char-
acters, misspellings, or odd grammar, it is not
a malfunction of the TV.
