Connecting the AV Receiver/AV Amplifier-Continued Connecting Components with HDMI About HDMI Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, 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 up to eight channels of 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.) The AV receiver/AV amplifier uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)*2, so only HDCP-compatible components can display the picture. The AV receiver/AV amplifier's HDMI interface is based on the following standard: Repeater System, Deep Color, Lip Sync, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, SA-CD, and Multichannel PCM Supported Audio Formats • 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 (DSD, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS- HD Master Audio) Your DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above audio formats. About Copyright Protection The AV receiver/AV amplifier supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)*2, a copy-protection system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver/AV amplifier via HDMI must also support HDCP. Commercially available HDMI cables (supplied with some components) should be used to connect the AV receiver/AV amplifier's HDMI OUT to the HDMI input on your TV or projector. *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's designed to protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video. *3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Lead by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open industry group's objective is to address the industry's requirements for a digital connectivity specification for high-performance PCs and digital displays. 33
