CONNECTIONS
HDMI Auto Detection Function
The player's video output will automatically change to HDMI mode when connecting an HDMI cable
while power is on.
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single
connector. Using HDMI, the DVD Home Cinema transmits a digital video and audio signals and
displays a vivid picture.
HDMI connection description
HDMI connector - Supports video and digital audio data.
- HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.
- If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise
appears on the screen.
Why does Samsung use HDMI?
Analogue TV's require an analogue video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data
transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analogue converter (in the DVD Home
Cinema) or an analogue-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture
quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no
D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV.
What is the HDCP?
HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted
via HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc)
and a display device (TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent
unauthorized copies from being made.
What is ?
is a convenient function that offers linked operation of this unit through Samsung TV's with the
feature.
- If your Samsung TV has an
'
logo, then it supports the function.
- If you turn on the player and insert a disc, the player will start playing the disc, and the TV will turn on
automatically and switch to HDMI mode.
- If you turn on the player and press the Play button with a disc already inserted, the TV will
immediately turn on and switch to HDMI mode.
BD WISE (Samsung products only)
You can select to use the BD Wise menu only if the Samsung home cinema is connected to a Samsung TV that
supports BD Wise using an HDMI cable.
What is BD Wise?
BD Wise automatically adjusts BD Wise-compliant Samsung products to the
optimal settings between them.
This feature is enabled only if BD Wise-compliant Samsung products are
connected to each other using an HDMI cable.
To use BD Wise
1. Use an HDMI cable to connect the Samsung home cinema to a BD Wise-
compliant Samsung TV.
2. Set each BD Wise menu of the Samsung home cinema and the Samsung TV
to On, respectively.
- This will optimize the picture quality according to the content (In the disc, DVD, etc) that you want to play.
- This will also optimize the picture quality between the home cinema and your BD Wise-compliant Samsung TV.
If you want to change the resolution in BD Wise mode, you must set BD mode to Off in advance.
If you set the BD Wise mode to off, the resolution of the connected TV will be adjusted to its maximum resolution
automatically.
BD Wise will be disabled if the player is connected to a device that does not support BD Wise.
