HDMI (High Defi nition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is an interface to enable the digital transmission
of video and audio data with just a single connector.
Since HDMI is based on DVI, it is completely
compatible with DVI. The only diff erence between
HDMI and DVI is that HDMI supports multi-channel
audio.
Using HDMI, the DVD recorder transmits a digital
video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on
a TV having an HDMI input jack.

HDMI connection description
HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data and
digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).
- Though the DVD recorder uses a HDMI cable, the
DVD recorder 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 Recorder) 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 DVD recorder to your TV.
■
What is the HDCP?
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)
is a system for protecting DVD content outputted
via HDMI 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.
