HDMI Connection
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high
quality sound by connecting the TV and the equipment.
HDMI-compatible equipment (*1) with a HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a set top box or a DVD
player, can be connected to the HDMI terminal using a HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable. About
connections see “External Equipment” on page 23.
Note
HDMI is the world’s first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression
standard.
If the external equipment has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI1 terminal via a DVI to HDMI
adapter cable (*2).
When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal
(HDMI1: use AUDIO IN terminals).
Audio setting can be made on the “HDMI1 Input” menu screen.
Applicable audio signal sampling frequencies (2ch L.PCM) : 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz.
HDMI2 terminal is for digital audio signal only.
Use with a PC is not assumed.
If the connected equipment has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspect ratio to “16:9”.
These HDMI connectors are “type A”.
An equipment having no digital output terminal may be connected to the input terminal of either
“Component”, “S-VIDEO”, or “Video” to receive analogue signals.
The HDMI input terminal can be used with only following image signals : 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, 720p
and 1080i. Match the output setting of the digital equipment.
For details of the applicable HDMI signals, see page 27.
