To output HDMI video signals to a DVI-D video input compatible device, use an HDMI/DVI conversion cable or adapter. The DVI-D connector can transmit high quality digital video signals, but copy guard and other issues may hinder normal operations for some device combinations. NOTE • No sound is output when connected to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector. Make audio connections as described in "Connecting a TV" (vpage 13). • Signals cannot be output to DVI-D devices that do not support HDCP. • Depending on the combination of devices, the video signals may not be output.
