Connecting external devices
HDMI connection
The HDMI connections permit digital video and audio
transmission via a connection cable from a player/
recorder. The digital picture and sound data are
transmitted without data compression and therefore
lose none of their quality. Analogue/digital conversion
is no longer necessary in the connected devices,
which also would result in quality losses.
DVI/HDMI conversion
Using a DVI/HDMI cable, the digital video signals of
a DVD can also be played via the compatible HDMI
connection. The sound must be fed in additionally.
When connecting a DVI/HDMI cable to the HDMI terminal, the
image may not come in clearly.
Both HDMI and DVI use the same HDCP copy protection method.
NOTE
If a connected HDMI device is AQUOS LINK compatible, you
can take advantage of versatile functions (Pages 27–29).
Video noise may occur depending on the type of HDMI cable used.
Make sure to use a certified HDMI cable.
When playing the HDMI image, the best possible format for the
picture will be detected and set automatically.
Supported video signal:
576i, 576p, 480i, 480p, 1080i, 720p, 1080p
See page 49 for PC signal compatibility.
