HDMI

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is the extension / successor of the DVI video standaard. The most important difference is the fact that HDMI transports audio in addition to the video signal.

HDMI delivers an uncompressed connection for both video and audio, requiring a single cable from the source to the HDTV. Compared to DVI HDMI enables a higher bandwidth for the connection and HDMI supports HDCP for content protection.
