(Speaker and other settings are not required.)HDMI-supported monitor (Supports audio input for 2 or more channels)• MULTI (LPCM) .........Use this connection when you would like to enjoy the multi-channel output from anHDMI connector and the connection point does not support a DTS, Dolby Digital, orother decoder. (Speaker settings are permitted.)NOTES:• HDMI audio output settings permit the selectionof either 2 channels or multi-channels. A down-mixed audio signal is only output from the analogconnectors (Left/Right and Front Left/FrontRight) of the DVD-2910. To output multi-channelsound from the analog audio output connectors,set HDMI to OFF, or select “2CH”.• When the HDMI audio setting is set to multi-channel, the “AUDIO CHANNEL”, “DIGITALOUTPUT”, “LPCM (44.1kHz/48kHz)”, “SOURCEDIRECT” and “BASS ENHANCER” under“AUDIO SETUP”.• The HDMI video and audio output are bothturned off if the video output is set to “OFF” orif “ALL OFF” is set. Also note that it will not bepossible to select the setting of digital outputwhen selecting “MULTI (NORMAL)” at “HDMIAUDIO SETUP”. (See Pages 17, 18.)• When selecting MULTI (NORMAL) or MULTI(LPCM), the DVD-2910 speaker settings under“AUDIO SETUP”become invalid.• When playing a Super Audio CD with an HDMIconnection, audio cannot be transferred beyondthe CD layer. Make an analog connection for this.• Among the devices that support HDMI, somedevices can control other devices via the HDMIconnector; however, the DVD-2910 cannot becontrolled by another device vice the HDMIconnector.• When using display equipment that is notsupported by the HDCP (content protectionfunction), the image will not be output properly.(See the compatibility table.)• The audio signals from the HDMI connector(including the sampling frequency and bit length)may be limited by the equipment that is connected.A simple 1-cable connection (using a commercially available cable) with a device having an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) connector allows digital transfer of the digital images of DVD video and othersources, DVD video, and the multi-channel sound of DVD audio.(9) DVI connectionsConnection with equipment that has a DVI (Digital Visual Interface)-D connector permits the transfer of digitalimages.✽ When using display equipment that is not supported by the HDCP (content protection function), the imagewill not be output properly. (See the compatibility table.)✽ Make an audio connection also because an audio signal will not be output from the DVI-D connector.✽ Commercially-available DVI cables are available in 24-pin and 29-pin types. The DVD-2910 supports the 24-pinDVI-D cable, but the 29-pin DVI cable cannot be connected.Monitor equipped with DVI input connectors24P DVI-D cable(commercially available)DVI-D InputconnectorNOTE:HDMI and DVI connectors.• The table below indicates the compatibility of connections between the HDMI/DVI-D output connector of theDVD-2910 and monitors that support HDMI/DVI-D.Monitor withHDMI™Video/Audio*1™(Only Video)Monitor withDVI-D (HDCPcompatible)™(Only Video)*2™(Only Video)HDMI outputterminalDVI-D outputterminalMonitor withDVI-D (HDCPincompatible)xx*1 Among the monitors that support HDMI, somedo not support audio output (for example,projectors). In connections with equipment suchas this, audio signals are not output from theHDMI output connector. Use analog audiooutputs connectors to provide the audio output at“DIGITAL INTERFACE SETUP” under “SETUP”,set “HDMI AUDIO SETUP” to “2CH”.*2 When the set’s HDMI connector is connected toa DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible)with an HDMI-DVI converter cable (commerciallyavailable), the signals are output in digital RGB,regardless of the “HDMI/DVI SELECT” setting.To play the digital images and sounds of DVD video or DVD audio via an HDMI/DVI-D connection, itis necessary that both the player and monitor (or AV amplifier) support a copyright protectionsystem called HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection System). HDCP is copy protectiontechnology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the partner equipment. The DVD-2910 supports HDCP. Please see the user’s manual of your monitor (or AV amplifier) for informationabout this.Copyright Protection SystemDVD-2910
