Is this HDMI 1.0 or 1.1? Does anyone know the spec of HDMI supported by this TV?

I don't know what HDMI it is but I really doubt it's 1.3 because it seems Samsung is realeasing three HDMI 1.3 models in March 2007. The new model coming out soon "LN-T4665F" I believe is HDMI 1.3. You may want to wait and check out that one. Thanks for asking this question it made me look into the HDMI 1.3 model.

I have the same problem 5.1 only seems to pass thru HDMI 1. I have to connect my bluRay player directly to Amp to get 5.1

Quick answer is I do not know. the manual does not tell us about which HDMI spec is supported by the unit. However 1.3 that supports 3D was introduced in 2006, and these receivers were designed in 2008, so they should (most likely) support 3D. But 3d is going bye bye anyway, so it might be a moot point. Good luck, the unit I have has been reliable and a good sounding unit.

They are HDMI 1.4, LG has promised an upgrade kit and have told other users it will be in the form of a service technician coming to your home to do the install. Others have been told it will be a software update similar to what Sony did. I do not think you will have to ship the TV anywhere regardless of the solution.

Yes, this TV supports HDMI 2.0 and I was able to connect a Dell M6800 laptop to it to obtain 3840x2160 @ 60 Hz over displayport and hdmi. Only some of the inputs are be able to display the 3840x2160 @ 60hz video though.

this card support 1920X1080 (full HD mode) mode. I do see any problem in full HD (does not matter how much inches). Yes it definitely should support any tv which works in 1920X1080 (full HD mode)

Not at this time, it has HDMI 1.4. Who knows if HDMI 2.0 will be available via firmware update

From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI): High Speed HDMI 1.3 cables can support all HDMI 1.4 features except for the HDMI Ethernet Channel.

I'm not sure what 1.3 tech is, but I can say that I have never had a problem with my HDMI cables. I am running this TV through a Sony receiver using one HDMI. I have 3 other HDMI devices that are running into my receiver (DVD player, Xbox, and Directv Receiver). When you use all soney products, this TV will recognize the components. For instance, even though my DVD player is connected through my receiver, if everything is turned off, all I would have to do is pop a DVD into the player and the receiver and TV will turn on automatically.

Please review the capabilities of HDMI 1.4 (a quick search on Wikipedia has a easy to understand definition). The capabilities of this capability shows that this cable supports all the requirements of 1.4. So yes it is HDMI 1.4Compatibility- Supports 3D Content- Guaranteed 4Kx2K, 1440p, 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p, and 480i Resolutions- Supports Audio Return Channel- Supports Highest Refresh Rates Available- Supports Transfer Rates of Up to 340Mhz or 10.2gbps- Supports True HD Dolby 7.1 and DTS-HD Master Audio- HDCP Compliant

I tested this with the HDMI connection. The owners manual, available publicly on the Philips site, indicates that the choice of upscaling format is available only on an HDMI connection, so I did not bother trying with component video. It seems component video supports only 480i/480p, or 576p to a PAL TV. The manual also indicates support for HDMI connections to DVI devices that support HDCP; I don't have such a device so I have not verified this. I hope shortly to have a 1080p TV to verify its behavior there.Thanks for the question. Although I saw it mentioned in a review or another forum question that upscaling was available only on HDMI, I realised after I wrote earlier that I should have included this detail.

The unit works great with a Samsung LED 6030 TV but I honestly don't know whether it supports both 5.1 and 2.1

I also have been considering this TV and wondering about the HDMI 1.0 issue. Since so far no knowledgable techie has chirped in I did a little of my own research, and here is what I found out. This all comes from an industry web site hdmi.org ------------------------ The initial HDMI 1.0 specification was released in December 2002. Version 1.1 was released in May 2004. Version 1.2 was released in August of 2005. Version 1.2a was released in December of 2005. Version 1.3 was released in June of 2006. Q. What functionality was added to each specification? The following provides an overview of major functionality added to each version of HDMI HDMI 1.1 Support for DVD Audio ------------------------------- So my guess is that like the poster said it will not take the audio from his dvd player in the hdmi input, but I assume he could bring the audio in through other inputs assuming his dvd player has other outputs. Hopefully someone with more knowledge can elaborte on this, meanwhile I think I'll move on and look for a set that has at least a HDMI 1.1 interface since using a DVD player is one thing I want to do with it.

You're mixing apples and oranges. It's the HDMI 1.4 ports that can only accept a maximum resolution of 3,840x2,160p30 (or 3,840 by 2,160 @ 30 frames per second) assuming 24-bit color because the bandwidth is not wide enough to handle any more than that. HDMI 2.0 (standard just agreed a few months ago) doubles that bandwidth to accommodate 60 fps keeping everything else constant. You're talking about the refresh rate when you mention 120Hz meaning that the TV is refreshing its picture faster than the fps rate of the source material. As of right now, there is no 120 fps video that I'm aware of, but it's supposed to be the standard for UHTV (4k) whenever they start producing 4k native content. Of course, at that point, not even HDMI 2.0 will have a sufficiently wide bandwidth to handle the 120 fps content at 4k resolution. The short answer to your question is that it's not the TV or its refresh rate, but rather the limit of its HDMI ports that is the problem with the current generation of 4k sets.

No TV made can decode HD bitstreams. Some receivers can, but it is irrelevant. Only computers can currently send deep color. It is not part of the spec in any of the old/new media. Having HDMI 1.3 is essentially useless on the TV.

what make and model tv are you playing it on and can the tv play 780p and or 1080i resolution?you may not see much of a difference if not.
