Copyright protection system
To play back the digital video images of a BD/DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both
the unit and the display device (or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called
HDCP (high-bandwidth digital content protection system). HDCP is copy protection technology that
comprises data encryption and authentication of the connected AV device. This unit supports HDCP.
Please read the user guide of your display device (or AV amplifier) for more information.
* HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface

• When using HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI
jack, this unit can be controlled by another device via the HDMI jack.
• The audio signals from the HDMI jack (including the sampling frequency, the number of
channels and bit length) maybe limited by the device that is connected.
• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (e.g, projectors). In
connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output jack.
