Note
The shape of the HDMI output port varies depending on the model you purchased. Be sure
to use an HDMI cable that is compatible with the HDMI output port on your VAIO computer.
If a device driver other than the one provided by Sony is used, the image will not be
displayed and audio will not be heard. Always use the device driver provided by Sony for
updates.
To hear sound from a device connected to the HDMI output port, you need to change the
sound output device. For detailed instructions, see Changing the Sound Output Device.
Hint
The HDMI output port on your VAIO computer is compliant with the High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection (HDCP) standard and capable of encrypting the transmission channel of
digital video signals for the purpose of copyright protection, which enables you to view a
wide variety of copyright protected and high-quality content.
