Connecting for HDMI output
If you have an HDMI or DVI (with HDCP) equipped monitor or
display, you can connect it to this player using the supplied HDMI
cable.
The HDMI connector outputs uncompressed digital video, as well as
most digital audio formats.
Important
• This unit has been designed to be compliant with HDMI
(High-Definition Multimedia Interface). Depending on the
component you have connected, using a DVI connection may
result in unreliable signal transfers.
• If you change the display connected to the HDMI output, you will
also need to change the output video resolution settings to
match the new display (see Changing the output video resolution
on page 12 to do this).
• The HDMI connection is compatible with 8-channel linear PCM
signals (44.1 kHz to 192 kHz
1
, 16 bit/20 bit/24 bit), Dolby Digital,
Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD High Resolution
Audio and DTS (5.1 channel signals) bitstreams.
• Depending on the HDMI cable being used, 1080p output may
not appear correctly (The supplied HDMI cable is capable of
outputting 1080p video).
• If you connect a DVI device to the HDMI output of this player,
ensure that it is compliant with High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector,
you will need a separate adaptor (DVIHDMI) to do so. A DVI
connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult
your local audio dealer for more information.
• Use an HDMI cable (supplied) to connect the HDMI OUT
interconnect on this player to an HDMI interconnect on an
HDMI-compatible display.
• The arrow on the cable connector body should be face up for
correct alignment with the connector on the player.
After switching on the player you may need to set the output video
resolution and HDMI colour space for compatibility with your
display. See Changing the output video resolution on page 12 and
HDMI Color Space in Using the Initial Setup menu on page 39.
About HDMI
HDMI supports both standard and high-definition video, plus
standard and multi-channel surround-sound audio. HDMI features
include uncompressed digital video, one connector (instead of
several cables and connectors), and communication between the
AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.
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.
About HDMI Control
You can enable HDMI Control by turning the HDMI Control setting
to On for all components connected via HDMI cable. Check the
video output from this unit once you have completed making
connections and settings for all components. You will need to check
the video output each time you change connected components or
remove the HDMI cable.
If you want to use an HDMI cable other than the supplied HDMI
cable, use the one that supports the HDMI 1.3 specification
(Category 2) or later. The HDMI Control functions may not operate
properly if you do not use an HDMI cable that supports the HDMI 1.3
specification (Category 2) or later.
Connecting using the component video
output
You can use the component video output instead of the standard
video out jack to connect this player to your TV (or other equipment).
• Use a component video cable (not supplied) to connect the
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to a component video input on
your TV, monitor or AV receiver.
Be careful to match up the colours of the three jacks for correct
connection.
Note
1 There are some restrictions depending on the sampling rate. For more information see About the audio output settings on page 42.
