About HDMI connection
The HDMI jack on the speaker system supports video signals up to 4K 120p/8K, HDR (High Dynamic Range)(*1), VRR(*2), ALLM(*3), SBTM(*4), HDCP2.3(*5), and a wide color gamut in compliance with the ITU-R BT.2020 standard(*6).
Hint
- When the low latency mode is enabled by the ALLM function, some types of sound processing will not be performed to reduce audio delay.
*1 HDR is a video standard that provides vivid images and is capable of representing a wider range of luminance (bright and dark). The speaker system supports HDR10, HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma), and Dolby Vision.
*2 VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) is a method of video transmission that can reduce video stuttering and display images smoothly by adjusting the refresh rate on the display to match the frame rate in video games, etc.
*3 ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) is a function that automatically switches to low latency mode in conjunction with the output of video games, etc.
*4 SBTM (Source-Based Tone Mapping) is a function that allows an AV device to produce and display HDR images that are optimized for the characteristics of a TV.
*5 HDCP2.3 is a copy protection technology that protects content such as 4K and 8K video content.
*6 BT.2020 is a wide color gamut standard that is established for Super Hi-Vision TVs.
