Designed to meet the demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital interface 
standard for connecting TVs, projectors, DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video components. Until now, several 
separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry 
control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital audio, and 
multichannel PCM).
The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface)

*1

, so TVs and displays 

with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and 
displays, resulting in no picture.)
The AV receiver/AV amplifier uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)

, so only HDCP-compatible 

components can display the picture.

• 2-channel linear PCM (32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Bitstream (Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD 

Master Audio)

Your DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above audio formats.

The AV receiver/AV amplifier supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)

, a copy-protection sys-

tem for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver/AV amplifier via HDMI must also support 
HDCP.
Commercially available HDMI cables (supplied with some components) should be used to connect the AV receiver/AV 
amplifier’s HDMI OUT to the HDMI input on your TV or projector.

*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG

*3

 in 1999.

*2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It’s designed to 

protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.

*3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Lead by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open 

industry group’s objective is to address the industry's requirements for a digital connectivity specification for high-performance PCs and 
digital displays.

The AV receiver/AV amplifier’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard:
