HDMI VIDEO Specifications

- Depending on your TV, certain HDMI output resolutions may not work.

- Please refer to the user's manual of your TV.

- If an HDMI or HDMI-DVI cable is plugged into TV, the DVD player’s output is set to HDMI automatically about 10 seconds later.

- For better picture quality, set the HDMI output resolution to 720p, 1080i or 1080p (see page 51).

- This player upconverts regular DVDs for playback on 1080p TVs. It does not play HD DVDs or Blu-Ray discs.

- If you connect an HDMI cable between Samsung TV and this DVD player, you can operate this DVD player using your TV remote control. This is only available with Samsung TVs that support Anynet+(HDMICEC).(see page 55-56)

- If your TV has an logo, then it supports the Anynet+ function.

• HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)

HDMI enables you to make a digital video and audio connection with a single cable.

Using HDMI, the DVD player transmits a digital video and audio signal which displays a vivid picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.

• HDMI connection description

HDMI connector - Video and audio are transferred digitally without compression (LPCM or Bit Stream

data).

- The player outputs a pure digital signal to the TV through an HDMI cable.

- If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital content protection), snow noise appears on the screen.

• Why does Samsung use HDMI?

Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the signal transmitted to

a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD player) or an analog-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV.

• What is HDCP?

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content output via

HDMI/DVI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device (TV, projector, etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from being made.

CONNECTIONS

Connecting to a TV (Progressive)

- What is "Progressive Scan"? Progressive scan has twice as many scanning lines as the interlace output method and provides better and clearer picture quality.
