HDMI stands for high definition multimedia interface and is a type of [[Standard Video Device Connector]].  HDMI is a method for connecting a video and audio source device such as a set-top box or DVD player to a display device using a single cable.  HDMI connectors are now appearing on some computers, typically on new video cards and video capture devices.{{:High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)}} HDMI is a connector format that carries the same video signal as DVI, but instead of using the remaining pins for an optional video signal, pins are used to carry seven digital audio channels.  Because all HDMI devices are HDCP compliant, the HDMI advantage is overshadowed by anti-copy technology that cripples video equipment with HDMI connectors.  Consumers should understand the dirty tricks being imposed by Intel, the MPAA, and manufacturers pushing for HDMI dominance. [[Image:hdmi_connector_examples.jpg]] * [[High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)]]* [[High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP)]]
