Deep Colour supported
Deep Colour means the colour depth that describes the
number of bits used to represent the colour of a single
pixel in a bitmapped image. Besides the conventional
RGB/YCbCr16 bit/20 bit/24 bit signals, the plasma
television also supports RGB/YCbCr30 bit/36 bit signals.
In this way, when a component supporting HDMI 1.3
Deep Colour is connected, signals can be transmitted
and received without signal degradation.

About HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports
both video and audio on a single digital connection for
use with DVD players, DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV
devices. HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI) in one
specification. HDCP is used to protect digital content
transmitted and received by DVI-compliant displays.
HDMI has the capability to support standard,
enhanced, or high-definition video plus standard to
multi-channel surround-sound audio. HDMI features
include uncompressed digital video, a bandwidth of up
to 2.2 gigabytes per second (with HDTV signals), one
connector (instead of several cables and connectors),
and communication between the AV source and AV
devices such as DTVs. HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-
Definition Multi-media Interface are trademarks or
registered trademarks of HDMI licensing LLC.
