Connecting an HDMI-compatible device You can connect up to five HDMI-compatible devices (4-inputs/1-output) to the unit. If the device connected to this unit is equipped with an HDMI connector, it is recommended to use HDMI connections. Connections with an HDMI cable offer the following benefits that can not be achieved with other connection methods.

High quality playback by transmitting audio and video via digital signals HDMI connections can transmit high definition video and high quality audio formats adopted by Blu- ray disc players (Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, DTS-HD Master Audio). HDMI connections also convey information required for playback between devices. This information is used for copyright protection and TV resolution recognition.

Transmission of audio and video signals with a single HDMI cable Previous connections require multiple audio and video cables, but HDMI connections require only a single HDMI cable to transmit audio and video signals. This allows wires in a home theater system, which tend to be complicated, to be more organized.

Standby Pass (vpage 33) Outputs signals received from the HDMI input connector to the TV connected to the HDMI output connector even when the unit is in standby mode.

This unit also supports 3D video playback and other functions related to video and audio (vpage 8).

There is more than one version of HDMI standard. The supported functions and the performance vary according to the version. This unit complies with the HDMI standard, supporting the 3D playback function. To enjoy these functions, the HDMI device connected to this unit also needs to use the same version of the standard. For the version of the HDMI standard on the device connected to this unit, see the devices manual.

Some TVs do not support audio input via HDMI connections. For details, see your TVs manual. When Standby Pass is set to other than OFF, more power is consumed than in normal standby

mode.

Connecting an HDMI-compatible device

Video signals are not output if the input video signals do not match the monitors resolution. In this case, switch the Blu-ray Disc/DVD players resolution to a resolution with which the monitor is compatible.

When this unit and monitor are connected with an HDMI cable, if the monitor is not compatible with HDMI audio signal playback, only the video signals are output to the monitor. Make audio connections (vpage 10 Connecting a TV).

NOTE The audio signal from the HDMI output connector (sampling frequency, number of channels, etc.) may be

limited by the HDMI audio specifications of the connected device regarding permissible inputs. Only an HDMI signal is output from the HDMI MONITOR OUT connector.

Connecting to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector The DVI-D (Digital Visual Interface) method is also used for video transmission via digital signals. This is developed mainly for computers, and some AV devices such as projectors are equipped with this interface. To output HDMI video signals to a DVI-D video input compatible device, use an HDMI/DVI conversion cable, which converts HDMI video signals to DVI signals. The DVI-D connector can transmit high quality digital signals, but the copy guard and other issues may hinder normal operations for some device combinations.

NOTE No sound is output when connected to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector. Make audio

connections as described in Connecting a TV (vpage 10). Signals cannot be output to DVI-D devices that do not support HDCP. Depending on the combination of devices, the video signals may not be output.

Compressed audio formats such as MP3, WMA (Windows Media Audio) and MPEG-4 AAC reduce the amount of data by eliminating signal components that are hard for the human ear to hear. The RESTORER function generates the signals eliminated upon compression, restoring the sound to conditions near those of the original sound before compression. It also corrects the sense of volume of the bass to obtain richer sound with compressed audio signals. If you do not press any button for approximately 5 seconds, the menu screen light turns off.

Adobe RGB color, Adobe YCC601 color The color space defined by Adobe Systems Inc. Because it is a wider color space than RGB, it can produce more vivid and natural images.

D Deep Color An imaging technology supported by HDMI. Unlike RGB, which uses 8 bits (256 shades) per color, it can use 10 bits (1024 shades), 12 bits (4096 shades), or 16 bits (65536 shades) to produce colors in higher definition. Both devices linked via HDMI must support Deep Color. Dolby Digital Dolby Digital is a multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories. A total of 5.1 channels are played: 3 front channels (FL, FR and C), 2 surround channels (SL and SR) and the LFE channel for low frequencies. Because of this, there is no crosstalk between channels and a realistic sound field with a three- dimensional feeling (sense of distance, movement and positioning) is achieved. A realistic, powerful sense of presence is achieved when playing movie sources in AV rooms as well. Dolby Digital Plus Dolby Digital Plus is an improved Dolby Digital signal format that is compatible with up to 7.1 channels of discrete digital sound and also improves sound quality thanks to extra data bit rate performance. It is upwardly compatible with conventional Dolby Digital, so it offers greater flexibility in response to the source signal and the conditions of the playback device. Dolby Pro Logic g Dolby Pro Logic g is a matrix decoding technology developed by Dolby Laboratories. Regular music such as that on CDs is encoded into 5 channels to achieve an excellent surround effect. The surround channel signals are converted into stereo and full band signals (with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater) to create a three-dimensional sound image offering a rich sense of presence for all stereo sources.

Dolby TrueHD Dolby TrueHD is a high definition audio technology developed by Dolby Laboratories, using lossless coding technology to faithfully reproduce the sound of the studio master. This format provides the facility to support up to 8 audio channels with a sampling frequency of 96kHz/24bit resolution and up to 6 audio channels with a sampling frequency of 192kHz/24bit resolution. Dolby TrueHD is adopted for applications that put very high importance on sound quality. Downmix This function converts the number of channels of surround audio to less number of channels and plays back. DTS This is an abbreviation of Digital Theater System, which is a digital audio system developed by DTS. When playing back audio by connecting this system with a device such as DTS amplifier, accurate sound field position and realistic sound effect as if you are in a movie theater can be obtained. DTS 96/24 DTS 96/24 is a digital audio format enabling high sound quality playback in 5.1 channels with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz and 24 bit quantization on DVD-Video. DTS Digital Surround DTS Digital Surround is the standard digital surround format of DTS, Inc., compatible with a sampling frequency of 44.1 or 48 kHz and up to 5.1 channels of digital discrete surround sound. DTS Express DTS Express is an audio format supporting low bit rates (max. 5.1 channels, 24 to 256 kbps).

DTS-HD This audio technology provides higher sound quality and enhanced functionality than the conventional DTS and is adopted as an optional audio for Blu-ray Disc. This technology supports multi-channel, high data transfer speed, high sampling frequency, and lossless audio playback. Maximum 7.1-channels are supported in Blu-ray Disc. DTS-HD High Resolution Audio DTS-HD High Resolution Audio is an improved version of the conventional DTS, DTS-ES and DTS 96/24 signals formats, compatible with sampling frequencies of 96 or 48 kHz and up to 7.1 channels of discrete digital sound. High data bit rate performance provides high quality sound. This format is fully compatible with conventional products, including conventional DTS digital surround 5.1-channel data. DTS-HD Master Audio DTS-HD Master Audio is a lossless audio format created by Digital Theater System (DTS). This format provides the facility to support up to 8 audio channels with a sampling frequency of 96kHz/24bit resolution and up to 6 audio channels with a sampling frequency of 192kHz/24bit resolution. It is fully compatible with conventional products, including conventional DTS digital surround 5.1-channel data. DTS NEO:6 Surround DTS NEO:6 is a matrix decoding technology for achieving 6.1-channel surround playback with 2-channel sources. It includes DTS NEO:6 Cinema suited for playing movies and DTS NEO:6 Music suited for playing music. Dynamic range The difference between the maximum undistorted sound level and the minimum discernible level above the noise emitted by the device.

H HDCP When transmitting digital signals between devices, this copyright protection technology encrypts the signals to prevent content from being copied without authorization. HDMI This is an abbreviation of High-Definition Multimedia Interface, which is an AV digital interface that can be connected to a TV or amplifier. Video signal and audio signal can be connected using 1 cable.

L LFE This is an abbreviation of Low Frequency Effect, which is an output channel that emphasizes low frequency effect sound. Surround audio is intensified by outputting 20 Hz to 120 Hz deep bass.

M MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) This is an internationally standardized audio data compression scheme, using the MPEG-1 video compression standard. It compresses the data volume to about one eleventh its original size while maintaining sound quality equivalent to a music CD. MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group), MPEG-2, MPEG-4 These are the names for digital compression format standards used for the encoding of video and audio. Video standards include MPEG-1 Video, MPEG- 2 Video, MPEG-4 Visual, MPEG-4 AVC. Audio standards include MPEG-1 Audio, MPEG-2 Audio, MPEG-4 AAC.

P Protection Circuit This is a function to prevent damage to devices within the power supply when an abnormality such as an overload, excess voltage occurs or temperature for any reason. In this unit, the power indicator blinks and the unit enters standby mode when an abnormality occurs.

S Sampling frequency Sampling involves taking a reading of a sound wave (analog signal) at regular intervals and expressing the height of the wave at each reading in digitized format (producing a digital signal). The number of readings taken in one second is called the sampling frequency. The larger the value, the closer the reproduced sound is to the original. Speaker impedance This is an AC resistance value, indicated in (ohms). Greater power can be obtained with this value smaller. sYCC601 color Like x.v.Color, each of these color spaces defines a palette of available colors that is larger than the traditional RGB color model.

Explanation of terms

W WMA (Windows Media Audio) This is audio compression technology developed by Microsoft Corporation. WMA data can be encoded using Windows Media Player Ver.7, 7.1, Windows Media Player for Windows XP and Windows Media Player 9 Series. To encode WMA files, only use applications authorized by Microsoft Corporation. If you use an unauthorized application, the file may not work properly.
