Making Connections
Connecting HDMI
Components
With HDMI, you can easily enjoy high quality
sounds and images. The main unit plays
audio from HDMI compatible products while
also passing on the video signal to a HDMI-
connected TV.
About HDMI
HDMI (High Denition Multimedia Interface)
supports both audio and video 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 specication. HDCP is
used to protect the digital content transmitted
and received by DVI-compliant displays.
HDMI has the capability to support standard,
enhanced, or high-denition video plus
standard to multi-channel surround-sound
audio. HDMI features include 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.
This main unit is also compatible with the
DeepColor and x.v.Color feature (x.v.Color is
trademarks of Sony Corporation.).
•Check the setup of the connected
component if an image is poor or there is
no sound from a component connected
via the HDMI cable.
•Audio signals (sampling frequency,
bit length, etc.) transmitted from an
HDMI jack may be suppressed by the
connected component.
•When the connected component is not
compatible with copyright protection
technology (HDCP), the image and the
sound from the HDMI TV OUT jack may
be distorted or may be not output. In
this case, check the specication of the
connected component.
