Synopsis
High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is the future for HDTV, as it enables only one cable to deliver both high-definition video and multi-channel, digital audio to digital display devices such as DTVs, plasma displays, LCD TVs and projectors. HDMI also enables an all-digital connection between digital source devices, such as DVD players, DVD recorders, digital set-top boxes, D-VHS players and A/V receivers. HDMI is a new digital interface that was specifically created for use on consumer AV products. It enables intelligent, two-way communication between digital source and digital display devices, which means you need only one remote control for your entire system. Furthermore, it will automatically find and set component compatibility and play music and movies in your systems optimum available formats. HDMI is backward compatible with DVI, with the only loss being the new features added by HDMI, such as the multi-channel, digital audio, and the benefits of two-way communication between devices.
