Single, Uncompressed, Digital HDMI(TM) Connection with Content Protection (HDCP) Technology Adopted by over 100 manufacturers, the digital HDMI(TM) interface is already set to become the standard of the future. It delivers uncompressed digital video and audio signals to your display, so there is no signal deterioration. HDMI(TM) prevents any signal loss by transferring video digitally, without going through an analog interface or performing unnecessary digital-to-analog conversions, delivering a pristine signal that produces lossless images identical to the original. Not only does HDMI(TM) give you the highest quality images, but also true-to-life sound to intensify your home theater experience. Backed by major motion picture studios, HDMI(TM) provides digital content that truly reflects the filmmaker's original vision. To support secure one-way transfer of digital content, the HM-DT100 and HM-DH5 feature HDMI(TM)output with content protection technology called HDCP. Plus, HDMI(TM) also transfers video from existing standard definition analog sources, after conversion to progressive 480p digital video for greatly improved image quality. And, since this breakthrough technology's single cable handles both video and multi-channel audio, it makes cabling complications a thing of the past. * Copy protected contents cannot be transferred through the HDMI(TM) output to any device not equipped with an HDCP-compliant connector. Please be sure to connect to or via HDCP-compliant devices. ** HDMI(TM) is compatible with DVI-D so an HDMI(TM) cable can be connected to a DVI-D-compatible TV display using a DVI conversion cable. However, please be sure to verify that the source unit is HDCP-compliant. *** The DVI-D cable does not carry audio signals.
