What is HDMI™?

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cables are the standard for connecting HDTV.

They are built to properly handle high bandwidth, uncompressed video and

multi-channel audio—all in one cable.

Connecting a PC to Your BRAVIA

DVI-to-HDMI

adapter and separate audio connector.

Connect PC’s audio output when using a Digital Video Interface (DVI) or HD15

connection.

Press PC’s FUNCTION Key + Select Output to transmit to TV.

When using an HD15 connection, adjust TV’s

Pitch

and

Phase

to correct sharpness.

Refer to your

BRAVIA

Operating Instructions Manual for more information.

Adjust Screen Shape and Aspect Ratio

High-Definition and Standard-Definition signals are transmitted with different aspect ratios

(the width-to-height shape of the image). Most HD signals use a widescreen aspect ratio of

16:9. Most SD signals use a boxy 4:3 aspect ratio. The 16:9 aspect ratio looks perfect on your

BRAVIA

, but a 4:3 image may need to be adjusted to better fill the wide screen of your

BRAVIA

.

Adjust your TV so boxy 4:3 images are automatically re-configured (zoomed or

stretched) to fit the wide TV screen; OR

Watch SD content in its original, boxy format with wide black bars surrounding the

image to fill in unused space (for example, you may prefer to watch an old classic movie

in its original 4:3 format, not reconfigured for a wide screen).

Press

WIDE

on your remote control.

Your TV will display available wide modes for the

current signal.

Select the

Wide Mode

setting of your preference.
