Using HDMI Input
The INPUT 4, INPUT 5, INPUT 6, INPUT 7 terminals are HDMI
terminals to which digital video and audio signals can be input.
To use the HDMI terminal, specify the types of video and audio
signals to be received from the connected equipment. For the
types of these signals, see the operation manual that came with
the connected equipment.
Before starting the menu, press INPUT 4, INPUT 5, INPUT 6,
INPUT 7 on the remote control unit or press INPUT on the plasma
display to select INPUT 4, INPUT 5, INPUT 6 or INPUT 7.
For audio, the system supports the following:
• Linear PCM (STEREO 2ch)
• Sampling frequency: 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz
HDMI Control supported
The plasma display supports the HDMI Control functions. By
connecting devices that support the HDMI Control functions to
the plasma display, you can control the connected device(s) from
the plasma display or remote control unit of the plasma display.
See “Using the HDMI Control” on Chapter 13.
Deep Color supported
Deep Color means the color depth that describes the number of
bits used to represent the color of a single pixel in a bitmapped
image. Besides the conventional RGB/YCbCr16 bit/20 bit/24 bit
signals, the plasma display also supports RGB/YCbCr30 bit/36 bit
signals. This enables finer, minute color reproduction when a
device that supports Deep Color signals (HDMI1.3) is connected
to the plasma display. When Deep Color signals are received, the
color depth appears on the channel display.
Note
• It may take a short while until the image is displayed,
depending on the equipment connected.
• When connecting a PC to the HDMI terminal, use the HDMI
compliant PC or video card.
• When connecting a PC to the HDMI terminal using a DVI
output terminal, the plasma display may not display properly. If
that is the case, consult with your PC manufacturer.
• PC picture and/or sound may not be displayed or heard
properly depending on the PC used.
