What is HDMI?
• HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) supports both video and
audio on a single digital connection for use with DVD Players Set-Top
Boxes, and other AV devices.
• HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of HDCP (High
Definition Contents Protection). HDCP is used to protect digital content
transmitted and received.

2. The cable connector should face the correct alignment with the
connector on the DVD Player.
3. Please note when HDMI output is selected at 720p, 1080i or

jack. Select HD OFF when you are using S-Video or Composite

copyrights.
5. If your TV or monitor is without HDCP, its suggested to disconnect

used can make a noticable difference in picture and sound quality. Before
selecting one of the options, please make sure that any other equipment
(e.g. TV, receiver) has the required input/output channels for HDCP
checking.
