About HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports both video and audio on a
single digital connection for use with DVD Players, Set-Top Boxes, and other AV

width Digital Content Protection). HDCP is used to protect digital content
transmitted and received.
HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced or high-definition video
plus standard to multi-channel surround-sound audio, HDMI features include
uncompressed digital video, a bandwidth of up to 5 gigabytes per second, one
connector (instead of several cables and connectors), and communication
between the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.
