This new feature further delivers on HDMI promise to reduce cable clutter between your devices
As more and more devices become connected devices, taking advantage of features like streaming video over YouTube and NetFlix, rather than buying a new router and stringing Ethernet cables to each of these devices, your television can act as a type of router connecting to the internet through a single Ethernet connection and distributing connectivity to each of your other devices through the same HDMI cable that's transmitting video and audio content
Audio return channel:
The new audio return channel allows the HDMI connection between a television and A/V receiver to transmit audio two ways, both upstream and downstream
This eliminates the need for a separate audio cable and ensures you maintain the high digital audio quality of HDMI
Your experience is further enhanced by the LipSync functionality of HDMI which matches the audio and video of your programming compensating for any processor delays
3D support:
Another new pending revolution in the A/V world is the new 3D technologies being promised
HDMI stays ahead of the game by supporting several different methods of rendering 3D images
Movies and games of the future promise to bring you to a whole new level
4K x 2K support:
Resolution on par with state-of-the-art digital cinema projectors used in the local multiplexes will be coming to your living rooms. 4K x 2K which represents resolutions of 3,840 x 2,160 and 4,096 x 2,160 pixels will both be supported by HDMI 1.4
All high-speed versions of HDMI cable
