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.

About HDMI
Designed to meet the 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 TX-SR803/803E uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), so only HDCP-compatible components
can display the picture.
Supported Audio Formats
2-channel linear PCM (32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)
Multichannel linear PCM (5.1 ch, 32–96 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)
Bitstream (Dolby Digital, DTS)
Your DVD player must support HDMI Version 1.1.
About Copyright Protection
The TX-SR803/803E supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection),
*2
a copy-protection system for
digital video signals. Other devices connected to the TX-SR803/803E via HDMI must also support HDCP.
Commercially available HDMI cables (supplied with some components) should be used to connect the
TX-SR803/803E’s HDMI OUT to the HDMI input on your TV or projector.
