HDMI Provides an output for HD/SD HDMI video, and up to
eight channels of embedded audio, to a digital HDMI device.
HDCP is not supported on this output. This output supports 1:1
pixel mapping for accurate monitoring on your HDMI display
of NTSC, PAL, 1280×720, and 1920×1080 video. Connect a
standard HDMI video/audio cable to an HDMI monitor, VTR,
or other digital HDMI device. You can also connect directly to a
home theatre system for 5.1 surround sound monitoring.

devices. To set the HDMI output type, see “Specifying
your video output settings” on page 52.

Using proc amp controls (hue, chroma, contrast, brightness, and
blue-only), you can calibrate your HDMI monitor as you would
a broadcast HD/SD video monitor (see Chapter 8, “Calibrating
Your HDMI Monitor for Video”).
