HDmi (High Definition multimedia interface)
HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector.
Using HDMI, the DVD Home Theater transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV
having an HDMI input jack.
HDmi connection description
HDMI connector - Supports video and digital audio data.
- HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.
- If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise appears on the
screen.
Why does Samsung use HDmi?
Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted to a TV is
digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD Home Theater) 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. HDMI
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-band width 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 unauthorized copies from being made.
What is ?
is a convenient function that offers linked operation of this unit through Samsung TVs with the
feature.
- If your Samsung TV has an
logo, then it supports the function.
- If you turn on the player and insert a disc, the player will start playing the disc, and the TV will turn on
automatically and switch to HDMI mode.
- If you turn on the player and press the Play button with a disc already inserted, the TV will immediately turn on
and switch to HDMI mode.
