This input is designed to accept HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital-Content Protection) program material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861-861B-compliant[1] consumer electronic devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output). The HDMI input will accept and display 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signals. Note: To connect a PC to the HDMI input, see page 21. To connect an HDMI device, you will need: • one HDMI cable (type A connector) per HDMI device - For proper operation, it is recommended that you use an HDMI cable with the HDMI Logo (HDMI™). You should use an HDMI cable shorter than 16.4 ft (5m) for 1080p input signals. - HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate analog audio cables are not required (see illustration). - See "Setting the HDMI™ audio mode" (- page 34).
