Important Note

• HDMI (High Defintion Multimedia Interface) HDMI is an interface to enable the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector. Using HDMI, the DVD player transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having a HDMI jack.

• Description of the HDMI connection HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data and digital audio data(LPCM or Bit Stream data).

• Though the player uses a HDMI cable, the player outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.

• If 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 data 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. DVI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV.

• What is the HDCP? HDCP(High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted via 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.

PROGRESSIVE SCAN OUTPUT (525p/625p)

“CONSUMERS SHOULD NOTE THAT NOT ALL HIGH DEFINITION TELEVISION SETS ARE FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH THIS PRODUCT AND MAY CAUSE ARTIFACTS TO BE DISPLAYED IN THE PICTURE, IN CASE OF 525 OR 625 PROGRESSIVE SCAN PICTURE PROBLEMS, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE USER SWITCH THE CONNECTION TO THE ‘STANDARD DEFINITION’ OUTPUT. IF THERE ARE QUESTIONS REGARDING OUR TV SET COMPATIBILITY WITH THIS MODEL 525p AND 625p DVD PLAYER, PLEASE CONTACT OUR CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER.”
