HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first
industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital A/V (audio/
video) interface.

Providing an interface between any A/V source (such as a
set-top box or A/V receiver) and an audio/video monitor
(such as a digital television – DTV), HDMI supports
standard, enhanced or high-definition video as well as
multi-channel digital audio using a single cable.

HDMI transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports
8-channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to
accommodate future enhancements and requirements.

When used in combination with HDCP (High-bandwidth
Digital Content Protection), HDMI provides a secure
audio/video interface that meets the security requirements
of content providers and system operators.

For further information on HDMI, visit the HDMI website
at “http://www.hdmi.org/”.

• Analog audio signals input at the audio input jacks other than

the HDMI IN 1 or HDMI IN 2 jack cannot be output at the
HDMI OUT jack. However, analog video signals input at the
composite video, S-video and component video jacks can be
up-converted to HDMI so that the digitally up-converted video
signals can be output at the HDMI OUT jack (see page 84).

• Connect the HDMI OUT jack of other components (such as a

DVD player) to the HDMI IN 1 or HDMI IN 2 jack of this unit.
Connect the HDMI OUT jack of this unit to the HDMI IN 1 or
HDMI IN 2 jack of other components (such as a projector).

• You need a commercially available HDMI cable to connect this

unit to other HDMI components. Use an HDMI cable shorter
than 5 m (15 ft) to ensure stable operations and to prevent losses
of video quality.

• This unit is not compatible with HDCP-incompatible HDMI or

DVI components.

• Use a conversion cable (HDMI jack

↔

DVI-D jack) to connect

this unit to other DVI components.

• Digital video signals input at the HDMI IN 1 or HDMI IN 2

jack cannot be output from analog video output jacks.

• Audio signals input at input jacks other than the HDMI IN 1 or

HDMI IN 2 of this unit cannot be digitally output at the
HDMI OUT jack.

• This unit is not compatible with multi-stereo area audio signals

of Super Audio CDs. You can connect devices (such as a DVD
player) to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks.

• When connected to a DVD player, audio signals may not be

output depending on the type of the DVD player. In case the
DVD player connected to this unit does not output DVD multi-
channel audio signals at the HDMI OUT jack, connect the DVD
player to the analog multi-channel audio input jacks.

• When CPPM copy-protected DVD audio plays back, video and

audio signals may not be output depending on the type of the
DVD player.

• Video and audio signals input at the HDMI IN 1 or HDMI IN 2

jack cannot be output at the HDMI OUT jack when this unit is
set to the standby mode or the power is turned off.

• When connecting other HDMI components to this unit, refer to

the instruction manuals for those components.

• When HDMI audio signals are output from components like a

DVD player, the audio signal format (such as sampling
frequencies) may be restricted depending on the HDMI video
signal format.

• Do not disconnect or connect the HDMI cable from this unit or

turn off the power of the HDMI/DVI components connected to
the HDMI OUT jack of this unit while data is being transferred.
Doing so may disrupt playback or cause noise.
