This input is designed to accept HDCP (High-Bandwidth
Digital-Content Protection) programme material in digital

devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or
DVI output).
NOTE:

your latest HDMI TV.
Supported Audio format: Linear PCM, sampling rate
•
32/44.1/48kHz.
To Connect an HDMI Device
