Connecting an HDMI
®
or DVI Device to the HDMI Input
The HDMI inputs on your TV receive digital audio and
uncompressed digital video from an HDMI source device
or uncompressed digital video from a DVI (Digital Visual
Interface) source device.
These inputs are designed to accept HDCP (High-Bandwidth
Digital-Content Protection) programme material in digital form
from EIA/CEA-861-D–compliant [1] consumer electronic
devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI
or DVI output).
NOTE:
• Some early HDMI equipment may not work properly
with your latest HDMI TV.
• Supported Audio format: Linear PCM, sampling rate
32/44.1/48kHz.
To Connect an HDMI Device
Connect an HDMI cable (type A connector) to the HDMI ter-
minal. For proper operation, it is recommended that you use
an HDMI cable with the HDMI Logo (

• If your HDMI connection is capable of 1080p and/or
your TV is capable of refresh rates greater
than 50Hz, you will need a Category 2 cable.

analogue audio cables are not required (see

• To view the HDMI device video, press
SOURCE
button to select the appropriate HDMI input.
