HDMI connection description
HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data and digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).
- Though the HDD & DVD Recorder uses a HDMI cable (not supplied), the HDD & DVD Recorder outputs only a pure
digital signal to the TV.
- If TV does not support HDCP (High -bandwidth Digital Content Protection), snow noise appears on the screen.
Why does Samsung use HDMI?
Analogue TVs require an analogue video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted to a TV is
digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analogue converter (in the HDD & DVD Recorder) or an analogue-to-digital
converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss.
HDMI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the HDD & DVD
Recorder to your TV.
What is the HDCP?
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted via HDMI 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 unauthorised copies from being made.
This allows you to connect your HDD & DVD Recorder to other external devices and view or record their outputs.
: Connecting a VCR, Set-Top Box(STB), DVD player or Camcorder to the AV IN 3 jacks
: Connecting a DV Device to the DV IN jack
Connecting a VCR or external device to AV IN 3 jacks of the HDD & DVD Recorder. You can record from
connected equipment (VCR, STB, DVD player or Camcorder).
AV IN 3 selection will be automatically done.
If the input is not selected automatically, use SOURCE button to select proper input.
Copy protected content cannot be recorded.
