Introducing HDMI 1.4a - The NEW Standard in High Def For 2D & 3D systems!

HDMI 1.4a adds two additional mandatory 3D formats for broadcast content, which was deferred with HDMI 1.4 in order to see the direction of the 3D broadcast market. HDMI 1.4a has defined mandatory 3D formats for broadcast, game, and movie content. 1.4a also supports 3D @ 1080p60.

The HDMI standard just got a lot more powerful, with new capabilities designed to push the boundaries of the HD experience – both in the home and on the go.

Features:

• HDMI Ethernet Channel
  HDMI Ethernet Channel technology consolidates video, audio, and data streams into a single HDMI cable, combining the umatched signal quality and convenience of HDMI connectivity with the power and flexibility of home entertainment networking. It incorporates a dedicated data channel into the HDMI link, enabling high-speed, bi-directional networking at up to 100 Mb/sec.
   
• Audio Return Channel
  The Audio Return Channel in HDMI 1.4 enables a TV, via a single HDMI cable, to send audio data “upstream” to an A/V receiver or surround audio controller, increasing user flexibility and eliminating the need for any separate S/PDIF audio connection.
   
• 3D
  The latest version of the HDMI standard establishes critical infrastructure for implementing 3D video in the home, defining input/output protocols that will allow 3D displays and source devices to communicate through an HDMI link. It’s a major milestone on the path to bringing true 3D gaming and 3D home theater to the mass market, supporting resolutions up to 1080p in 3D.
   
• 4K Support
  The HDMI 1.4 specification adds support for extremely high video resolutions that go far beyond today’s 1080p systems. 4K is shorthand for 4,000 lines wide by 2,000 lines high, or roughly four times the resolution of a 1080p display. The term actually covers two formats, both supported in the HDMI 1.4 specification:
  
  • 3840 pixels wide by 2160 pixels high
  • 4096 pixels wide by 2160 pixels high
     
• Content Type
  The HDMI Specification Version 1.4a enables simple, automated picture setting selection with no user intervention. The Content Type feature enables a display to auto-select the correct viewing mode to match the content type it is currently receiving from a source device, and to switch modes when a new content source is selected. Content Type supports content profiles for gaming, movie, photograph, and text viewing modes.
   
• Additional Color Spaces
  Adds support for additional color models used in digital photography and computer graphics.

Major Enhancements with HDMI High Speed with Ethernet Cables

• HDMI Ethernet Channel - Ads high-speed networking to a HDMI link, allowing users to take full advantage of their IP-enabled devices without a separate Ethernet cable.
• Audio Return Channel - Allows a HDMI-connected TV with a built-in tuner to send audio data "upstream" to a surround audio system, eliminating the need for a separate audio cable.
• 3D Over HDMI - Defines input/output protocols for major 3D video formats, paving the way for true 3D gaming and 3D home theatre applications.
• 4K Video Support - Enables video resolutions far beyond 1080p, supporting next-generation displays that will rival the Digital Cinema systems used in many commercial movie theatres.
• Additional Colour Spaces - adds support for three additional colour spaces enabling better and more accurate colour to users when they view their digital photos on an HDTV. In addition to RGB color and x.v.Colour, the HDMI standard now offers native support for three additional color spaces, sYCC601 colour, Adobe RGB colour and Adobe YCC601 colour
