Connecting a Component with an HDMI Input
This section shows how to connect the DPC-7.9 to an AV receiver, HDTV, or projector with an HDMI input.
What is HDMI?
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new connection format that can carry uncompressed, standard or high definition digital video and up to eight channels of digital audio. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components together. With HDMI, a single cable is all that’s necessary to achieve the best picture and audio quality. HDMI video is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface). To send HDMI video to a DVI input requires an HDMI-to-DVI cable. The DPC-7.9 supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), and for an HDMI-to-DVI connection to work, the other component must also support it. Note that this may not work with some DVI components.
Using HDMI
Use the HDMI cable to connect the DPC-7.9’s HDMI OUT to an HDMI input on your AV receiver. Alternatively, you can connect the DPC-7.9 directly to the HDMI input on your TV.
