People are talking about version 1.2 and version 1.3 and why they prefer to wait to get blah-blah features. Version 1.3 has been officially out for a few weeks already, the availability of chips and audio/video equipment using those chips is another story, it could take months, some say equipment could be using 1.3 chips by Christmas, Sony's PS3 expected by November claims it would have it.
I recently received an invitation from Leslie Chard, President of HDMI Licensing LLC, upon their introduction of version 1.3 in June of this year. Leslie had the courtesy to give me a private presentation before the official release to the press; the information below was taken from the presentation.
I also used the opportunity to exchange ideas about several subjects regarding HDMI, including some issues people are having when using HDMI, which took away some of the glowing image of HDMI, some with merit some without.
There are some rumors running about version 1.3 as the only one linked to 1080p, and that earlier versions would not be 1080p capable. One should not condone a manufacturer that installed a non-1080p HDMI chip regardless of the version into a $39 DVD player that just needs to output 480i/p, why? It does not have any use for the 1080p capability.
However, what is not right to some 1080p interested consumers is that equipment that claims 1080p handling capability be suited with a non-1080p HDMI chip that bottlenecks such ability.
In some cases, the TV might actually have the 1080p capable HDMI chip but might not have the proper TV design to internally handle 1080p between the chip and the final display of the image. Many first generation 1080p HDTVs recently introduced do not accept 1080p due to these reasons; cost decisions, market choices, etc. not the HDMI spec, any version.
It is unfair to HDMI that many manufacturers were blaming the unavailability of the HDMI 1.3 spec for their inability to accept 1080p on their 1080p TV sets, when actually even the version 1.0 spec was capable to handle such resolution, obviously the proper chip was not installed.
A similar situation could be mentioned for the incorrect claims that without HDMI 1.3 a new Hi-def DVD player (of either format) could not output new multichannel lossless audio formats (Dolby True-HD, DTS-HD, etc) to an A/V receiver.
Actually it could, the player converts the new audio format as LPCM and send it to the A/V receiver that way even thru a non-1.3 HDMI connector. For that to happen, the player must have the proper audio decoder for the lossless audio format read from the disc. Version 1.3 would permit the encoded audio to be streamed out as is read from the disc, for an external decoder to do the job (future A/V Receivers); there are some pros and cons on doing this. This subject is covered in depth in the following article:
