  The New Standard for Connecting HDTV
 

 

Backed by the industry’s biggest consumer electronics manufacturers, High-Definition Multimedia Interface™ (HDMI™) is quickly becoming the standard for connecting high-definition home theater components.

All digital provides the highest quality available
—HDMI is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high-definition video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD formats, including 720p, 1080i and even upcoming 1080p.


A single cable connection means no more cable mess—Since HDMI carries all digital video and audio channels, there is only one cable to connect any HDMI-enabled source device to a display.

Automatic format adjustment matches content to preferred viewing format—HDMI systems can automatically configure to display content in its most effective format. If cable TV content jumps from 16:9 format to standard 4:3, an HDMI-enabled TV will automatically adjust to match the ideal format.

PC Compatibility enables viewing of your PC data on your HDTV— HDMI enabled devices are backwards compatible with the broad array of DVI-based PCs so that you can display gaming or entertainment content on your HDTV.
