The High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) connectivity standard for transferring uncompressed digital content at very high rates over a single cable has come a long way. Last year's adoption of the HDMI version 1.3 release, with key performance improvements, has advanced the adoption rate of sources that provide 1080p resolution such as Blu-ray and HD-DVD. As its popularity grows, so does its list of supporters."HDMI has seen enormous growth and acceptance in 2006 and 2007," said Chris Chip-man, product marketing manager of the advanced TV product line at Analog Devices. "HDMI-enabled products are shipping from an ever-increasing number of par-ticipants and market segments. Products include advanced TVs, AVRs, DVD play-ers/recorders, Blu-ray and HD-DVD recorders, game consoles, set-tops, portable media players, digital cameras and HD camcorders. We expect this trend to continue in 2008 and beyond."
