About HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital interface standard for
connecting TVs, projectors, Blu-ray Disc/DVD players, set-top boxes, and
other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables
have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable
can carry control signals, digital video, and digital audio (2-channel PCM,
multichannel digital audio, and multichannel PCM).
The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital
Visual Interface) (*1), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be
connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with
some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.)
This unit supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) (*2),
so it can display picture only on HDCP-compatible components.
The HDMI on this unit supports the following functions:
Audio Return Channel, 3D, x.v.Color, DeepColor, Lip Sync, 4K (Upscaling
and Passthrough).
Supported Audio Formats of this Unit:
2-channel linear PCM (32 - 192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)
Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32 - 192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)
Bitstream (Dolby Atmos, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD,
DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio)
DSD
Your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above
audio formats.
About Copyright Protection:
The HDMI jack of this unit is compliant with Revisions 1.4 and 2.2 (HDMI
OUT MAIN and HDMI IN3 jacks only) of the HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection) specification (*2), which is a copy-protection system for
digital video signals.
Other devices connected to this unit via HDMI must also be compliant with
HDCP.
*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard
set by the DDWG (*3) in 1999.
*2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video
encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It is
designed to protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible
HDMI/DVI receiver to display the encrypted video.
