• HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)

HDMI is an interface to enable the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector.

Using HDMI, the DVD player transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.

• HDMI connection description

HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data and digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).

- Though the player uses a HDMI cable, the player outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.

- If TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth

Digital content protection), snow noise appears on the screen.

• Why does Samsung use HDMI?

Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal.

However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD player) or an analog-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss. DVI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV.

• What is the HDCP?

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted via

DVI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device (TV, projector . etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized

To resume normal play, press the CANCEL button.

- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 64Kbps when recording WMA files.

Sound quality with WMA files basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression you choose.

Getting CD audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to WMA format, of at least 64Kbps and up to 192Kbps. Conversely, files with decompression rates below 64Kbps or over 192Kbps will not be played properly. Sampling rate that can be supported for WMA files is

> 30Khz.

- Do not try recording copyright protected MP3 files.

Certain "secured" files are encrypted and code protected to prevent illegal copying. These files are of the following types:

Windows Media

TM

(registered trade mark of Microsoft Inc) and

SDMI

TM

(registered trade mark of The SDMI Foundation). You cannot copy such files.

- Important:

The above recommendations cannot be taken as a guarantee that the DVD player will play MP3 recordings, or as an assurance of sound quality. You should note that certain technologies and methods for MP3 file recording on CD-Rs prevent optimal playback of these files on your DVD player

(degraded sound quality and in some cases, inability of the player to read the files).

- This unit can play a maximum of 500 files and 500 folders per disc.

MPEG4 Playback

CD-R MP3/WMA file

When you record MP3 or WMA files on CD-R, please refer to the following.

- Your MP3 or WMA files should be ISO 9660 or JOLIET format.

ISO 9660 format and Joliet MP3 or WMA files are compatible with Microsoft's DOS and Windows, and with

Apple's Mac. This format is the most widely used.

- When naming your MP3 or WMA files, do not exceed 8 characters, and enter “.mp3, .wma” as the file extension.

General name format : Title.mp3. or Title.wma. When composing your title, make sure that you use 8 characters or less, have no spaces in the name, and avoid the use of special characters including: (.,/,\,=,+).

- Use a decompression transfer rate of at least 128 Kbps when recording MP3 files.

Sound quality with MP3 files basically depends on the rate of compression/decompression you choose. Getting CD audio sound requires an analog/digital sampling rate, that is conversion to MP3 format, of at least 128 Kbps and up to 160

Kbps. However, choosing higher rates, like 192 Kbps or more, only rarely give better sound quality. Conversely, files with decompression rates below 128 Kbps will not be played properly. Sampling rate that can be supported for WMA file is

> 30 Khz.

MPEG4 Play Function
