HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable. It transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-channel, 192kHz, uncompressed digital audio and all currently-available compressed formats (such as Dolby Digital and DTS). HDMI High Speed adds additional support for new lossless digital audio formats Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD Master AudioT with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements and requirements.

- By delivering crystal-clear, all-digital audio and video via a single cable, HDMI dramatically simplifies cabling and helps provide consumers with the highest-quality home theater experience.
- HDMI High Speed increases single-link bandwidth to 340 MHz (10.2 Gbit/s).
- HDMI High Speed supports 10-bit, 12-bit and 16-bit (RGB or YCbCr) color depths, for stunning rendering of over one billion colors in unprecedented detail.
