HDMI FAQ - HDMI is a great new standard that simplifies the device interconnect process while maintaining an all-digital transfer of audio and
video signals. HDMI is the first industry-supported, uncompressed audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between any HDMI-enabled audio/video source, such as a set-top box, DVD player, and
A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor or projector.
HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus
multi-channel digital audio on a single cable. It transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements and requirements.
HDMI cable assemblies use a much smaller, user-friendly connector than the DVI connector. The specification handles high-bandwidth,
uncompressed video and multi-channel digital audio as well, all in one cable. |
