Using an HDMI- HDMI cable(not included) connect the HDMI OUT jack on the rear of the DVD Recorder & VCR to

Press the input selector on your TV remote control until the HDMI signal from the DVD Recorder & VCR appears
on your TV screen.

▌Connecting to a TV with a DVI Jack
Using an HDMI-DVI cable (not included), connect the HDMI OUT terminal on the rear of the DVD Recorder & VCR
to the DVI IN terminal of your TV.
An HDMI to DVI connection requires a separate audio connection, using the audio cables, connect the AUDIO
(red and white) OUT (AV OUT) terminals on the rear of the DVD Recorder & VCR to the AUDIO (red and white) IN
terminals of your TV. Turn on the DVD Recorder & VCR and TV.
Press the input selector on your TV remote control until the DVI signal from the DVD Recorder & VCR appears
on your TV screen.
■
■
To set the HDMI output resolution (480p/720p/
1080i), see page 29.
■
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 Recorder
& VCR) 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.
HDMI technology is superior because it requires
no digital-to-analog conversion and is a pure
digital signal from the DVD Recorder & VCR to
your TV.
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI enables you to make a digital video and
audio connection with a single cable.
Using HDMI, the DVD and VCR player transmits a
digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid
picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.
■
■
HDMI is completely compatible with DVI.
The only difference between HDMI and DVI is that
HDMI supports multi-channel audio.
HDMI connection description
■
What is the HDCP?
HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data
and digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).
- Even though the DVD Recorder & VCR records
analog audio and video, with HDMI the analog
signal is converted to digital signal and is sent to
the TV.
- If your TV does not support HDCP (High-
bandwidth Digital Content Protection), snow
noise appears on the screen.
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)
is a system for protecting DVD content output
via HDMI 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 copies from being made.

Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM)
ꢀ
CPRM is a mechanism that ties a recording to the media on which it is
recorded. It is supported by some DVD Recorder & VCR, but not by many
DVD players. Each blank recordable DVD has a unique 64-bit media
ID etched in the BCA(Burst Cutting Area). When protected content is
recorded onto the disc, it can be encrypted with a 56-bit C2 (Cryptomeria)
cipher derived from the media ID. During playback, the ID is read from
the BCA and used to generate a key to decrypt the contents of the disc. If
the contents of the disc are copied to other media, the ID will be absent or
wrong and the data will not be decryptable.
Recording from External Equipment you

DVD-RAM/DVD±RW/+R discs should be formatted or initialized in
