•
The audio signal from the HDMI output connector (sampling frequency, number of channels, etc.) may be
limited by the HDMI audio specifications of the connected device regarding permissible inputs.
•
When connecting a TV that does not support the ARC function, an audio cable connection is
required in addition to the HDMI cable. In this case, refer to “Connecting a TV” (

Connecting to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector
The DVI-D (Digital Visual Interface) method is also used for video transmission via digital signals. This is
developed mainly for computers, and some AV devices such as projectors are equipped with this interface.
To output HDMI video signals to a DVI-D video input compatible device, use an HDMI/DVI conversion
cable, which converts HDMI video signals to DVI signals.
The DVI-D connector can transmit high quality digital signals, but the copy guard and other issues may
hinder normal operations for some device combinations.
NOTE
•
No sound is output when connected to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector. Make audio
connections as described in “Connecting a TV” (
•
Signals cannot be output to DVI-D devices that do not support HDCP.
•
Depending on the combination of devices, the video signals may not be output.
