HDMI cables that are not 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen dis\

What is HDMI?
HDMI(High-Definition Multimedia Interface), is an interface that enabl\
es the transmission of digital audio and video 
signals using a single cable.
The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller than DVI’s one.
The TV may not output sound and pictures may be displayed with abnormal colo\
ur when DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box 
/ Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) supporting HDMI versions older than 1.3 are connected. When connecting an older HDMI 
cable and there is no sound, connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI IN 3(DV\
I) jack and the audio cables to the DVI AUDIO IN 
jacks on the back of the TV. If this happens, contact the company that provided the DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box / Satellite 
receiver (Set-Top Box) to confirm the HDMI version, then request an upgrade.
Use the HDMI IN 3(DVI) jack for DVI connection to an external device. Use a DVI to HDMI cable \
or DVI-HDMI adapter (DVI 
to HDMI) for video connection and the  DVI AUDIO IN jacks for audio. When using an HDMI / DVI cable connection, you must 
use the HDMI IN 3(DVI) jack.
HDMI cables that are not 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen dis\
play.
