HMDI

For those trying to make sense out of the current high definition video and audio wars, DenGuru has an excellent article on the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) interface worth checking out. Being a home theatre enthusiast myself, all I can say is that you need to hold out for the new hardware components being released this year. The reason is that the HDMI 1.3 specification not only supports video beyond the 1080p high definition resolution but the best part is that it also supports the high definition Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD audio formats (both support lossless audio formats)! This is important because we finally get a superior upgrade in audio quality which hasn’t happened for some time (that includes the DVD format as it only offered us more channels but audio that was severely crippled by being compressed).
