or DVI
device to the HDMI input
The HDMI input on your television receives digital
audio and uncompressed digital video from an
HDMI source device or uncompressed digital video
from a DVI (Digital Visual Interface) source device.
This input is 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). For acceptable video signal formats, see page 76.
NOTE:
• Some early HDMI equipment may not work properly with
your latest HDMI TV, due to the adoption of a new standard.
