Important Note
• DVI (Digital Visual Interface)
DVI is an interface to enable the digital transmission of video signals between various digital devices.
Using DVI, the DVD player transmits a digital video signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having a DVI
jack.
• Description of the DVI connection
DVI-D connector : digital signal only.
DVI-I connector : digital and analog signal.
• Though the player uses a DVI-I cable, the player outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.
• If TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital content protection), snow noise or blue screen appears
on the screen.
• Be careful that various connectors are similar to DVI connector, for example VESA PnD, VESA DFD and so on.
• Why does Samsung use DVI?
Analog TVs require an analog video signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted to a TV is
digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter(in the dvd player) or an analog-to-digital converter (in the
TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss.
DVI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to
your TV.
• What is the HDCP?
HDCP(High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted via DVI
from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source(PC, DVD. etc) and a display
device(TV, projector . etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from
being made.
