Connecting an HDMI-compatible device
• When this unit is connected to other devices with HDMI cables, connect this unit and TV also with an 
HDMI cable.
• When  connecting  a  device  that  supports  Deep  Color  transmission,  please  use  a  “High  Speed  HDMI 
cable” or “High Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet”.
• Video signals are not output if the input video signals do not match the monitor’s resolution. In this case, 
switch the Blu-ray Disc/DVD player’s resolution to a resolution with which the monitor is compatible.
• When this unit and monitor are connected with an HDMI cable, if the monitor is not compatible with 
HDMI audio signal playback, only the video signals are output to the monitor.
NOTE
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.
Connecting to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector
When an HDMI/DVI conversion cable (sold separately) is used, the HDMI video signals are converted to 
DVI signals, allowing connection to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector.
NOTE
• No sound is output when connected to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector. Make separate audio 
connections.
• 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.
