Audio output

All players are capable of outputting two-channel audio (i.e. stereo) as:

• digital audio signal on the HDMI video output connector
• analog line-level signal on the audio output connector - the dedicated USB-C port on HMP400/HMP400W, respectively the 3.5 mm jack plug on the other players

Notes:

• The analog audio output is suitable to drive professional audio equipment (+4dBu proline level) with a margin of 4.66 dB or consumer equipment (-10 dBV consumer level).
• Simultaneous audio via both HDMI (digital) and 3.5 jack (analog) is supported only on HMP200, HMP130, and HMP100 devices; nevertheless we do not recommend using both outputs in the same environment as there might be phase/sync issues depending on the screen or HDMI decoder.
• Audio decoding and audio output require some CPU power, therefore enabling the audio on the player might have an influence on the overall rendering quality of the content.
• HDCP content via the HDMI port is not supported; HDCP protected content will not be played.

Enable audio output

The audio output is disabled by default on the HMP, it can be enabled by activating the "Enable audio output" check-box option from Control Center:

• Display & Audio > Audio page on HMP400, HMP400W, HMP350, and HMP300 devices;
• Display & Audio > Audio page on DiVA devices;
• Display Settings page >Advanced tab on HMP200, HMP130, and HMP100 devices.
