10 1. Television Overview
7. HDMI
Inputs
The HDMI 1.3 (High Definition Multimedia Interface) sup-
ports uncompressed standard and high-definition digital 
video formats and PCM digital stereo audio format.
Use the HDMI inputs to connect to CEA-861 HDMI com-
pliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD 
player.  These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, 
and 1080p video formats.
Mitsubishi recommends you use category 2 HDMI cables 
to connect HDMI 1.3 source devices.  High-speed cat-
egory 2 cables bring you the full benefits of Deep Color 
and x.v.Color.
These inputs can also accept digital DVI video inputs.  
To connect a DVI input, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or 
cable plus analog audio cables.  Connect the analog 
audio cables to the 
DVI/PC AUDIO INPUT
 on the TV to 
receive left and right stereo audio from your DVI device.
The TV’s HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D 
and HDMI computer video signals.  See chapter 2, “TV 
Setup” and Appendix A for additional information on PC 
compatibility.
These inputs are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy 
Protection) compliant.
These inputs are  
  certified for proper 
interoperability with other products certified by Simplay
.
HDMI Cable Categories
HDMI cables are available as Category 1 and 
Category 2 versions.
•  Category 2 Cables.
  Newer, HDMI 1.3-com-
pliant DVD players, video games, and set-top 
boxes require Category 2 cables.  Use category 
2 cables for these high-speed HD signals car-
rying extended color encodings (i.e., 30 or more 
bits, also called Deep Color).  Category 2 cables 
are also suitable for standard HDTV signals.
•  Category 1 Cables.  Unmarked cables are 
category 1 cables and are suitable for standard 
HDTV signals.
8. AVR AUDIO OUTPUT
Use 
AVR AUDIO OUTPUT
 to send analog audio of the 
program currently shown on the screen to an A/V sur-
round sound receiver or stereo system.  Digital audio 
from digital channels and HDMI devices is converted to 
analog audio by the TV.  If using an analog A/V receiver 
or stereo system, this is the only audio connection 
needed between it and the TV.

9. DVI/PC AUDIO INPUT
Use the 
DVI/PC AUDIO INPUT
 when connecting a DVI 
device to one of the TV’s HDMI inputs using a DVI-to-
HDMI cable.  These jacks allow you to send left and 
right analog audio from your computer or other DVI 
device to the TV.
10. COMPONENT (audio and video; front
and rear)
Y Pb Pr (480i/480p/720p/1080i)
Use these jacks to connect devices with component 
video outputs, such as DVD players, external HDTV 
receivers, or compatible video game systems.  A third 
set of component jacks is located on the front of the 
TV and shares the left/right audio jacks and 
VIDEO/Y
jack with the 
INPUT 3
 composite input.  See Appendix A 
specifications for signal compatibility.
11. RECORD OUTPUT
Use these composite video and left/right audio jacks 
to send analog video and audio signals to an external 
recording device such as a VCR.  To make recordings
from this output, the TV must be in normal full-
screen mode rather than in Split Screen mode.
•  You can watch another device while recording, 
but not another channel.
•  From this output you can record audio and 
video signals from 
ANT 1
, 
ANT 2
, 
INPUT 1-3
, and 
IEEE 1394 devices.
•  Digital signals from 
ANT 1
, 
ANT 2
, and IEEE 
1394 devices are converted to analog video and 
audio signals.
•  Some signals cannot be recorded because of 
copy-protection flags in the content.
12. 3D GLASSES EMITTER
The 
3D GLASSES EMITTER
 jack is in place for future 
gaming devices equipped with FX gaming 3D and dual-
view features.  Use this jack to connect a special IR 
emitter (supplied with the 3D glasses) that will synchro-
nize your 3D glasses with the screen display.
