Technical Information 62 HDMI connection HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the world’s first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard. HDMI allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality sound by connecting the TV and the equipment. HDMI-compatible equipment1 with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a DVD player, a set top box or a game equipment, can be connected to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable. About connections, see “External Equipment” (p. 58 - 60). Applicable HDMI features ●Input audio signal : 2ch Linear PCM (sampling frequencies - 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz) ●Input video signal : 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p “Input signal that can be displayed” (p. 63) Match the output setting of the digital equipment. ●Input PC signal : “Input signal that can be displayed” (p. 63) Match the output setting of the PC. ●VIERA Link (HDAVI Control 5) : [VIERA Link] (p. 53) ●Audio Return Channel2 (HDMI2 terminal only) DVI connectionIf the external equipment has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI terminal via a DVI to HDMI adaptor cable3.When the DVI to HDMI adaptor cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal (HDMI1 / 2: use AV2 audio terminals / HDMI3: use AV3 audio terminals). Note ●Audio settings can be made on the [HDMI1 / 2 / 3 Input] in the Sound Menu. (p. 27) ●If the connected equipment has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspect ratio to [16:9]. ●These HDMI connectors are “type A”. ●These HDMI connectors are compatible with HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) copyright protection. ●An equipment having no digital output terminal may be connected to the input terminal of “COMPONENT” or “VIDEO” to receive analogue signals. ●This TV incorporates HDMI™ technology. 1: The HDMI logo is displayed on HDMI-compliant equipment. 2: Audio Return Channel (ARC) is a function that enables the transmission of digital sound signals via an HDMI cable. 3: Enquire at your local digital equipment retailer shop.
