This connector conveys HDTV image scanning signals in binary data form. The data rate is very high (1.65 Gb/s). Binary data is preferred by monitors that are not CRTs. DVI comes with a decryption option called HDCP which will decode encrypted programs such as first-run movies.
An interface for transmitting digital video from a source (computer or STB) to a display. The DVI connection carries only digital video data and in HDTV applications the data is protected by the HDCP security protocol. If the DVI interface is used, then audio and control signals must be connected independently.
Is a single cable that is used to carry digital video data. DVI can have picture degradation from poor connections or cables because it does not include error correction or detection.

A multi-pin computer-style connection intended to carry high-resolution video signals from digital set-top boxes (HDTV-capable DIRECTV, DISHNetwork, and cable boxes, plus a few DVD players) to HDTV monitors with a compatible connector. The signals are encrypted with High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) to prevent recording.
DVI, launched in 1999, is a purely digital interface that transmits visual data from a source device to a plasma television, LCD TV, DLP Projection TV, or Projector. The connection is also secured by HDCP (High Definition Copy Protection) technology to protect the signal from piracy. (see HDCP Copy Protection)
Digial Visual Interface, an interface standard for connecting both analog and digital monitors. It offers a high bandwidth for digital data transfer, and can carry digital copy protection, hence its advocacy by Hollywood studios and certain consumer electronics manufacturers.
A digital interface standard created by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG) to convert analog signals into digital signals to accommodate both analog and digital monitors.
DVI is one of the best methods for delivering video digitally and is available on most HDTV tuners and HDTV-ready televisions as well as on many DVD players, mid- to upper-level AV receivers and newer computer monitors. PureAV DVI Dual Link Cables are designed to handle all HDTV formats, including the highest resolution currently available, 1080p. DVI is an encrypted format so you can't record a signal delivered via DVI. However, you can use DVI for your TV and an analog video format (such as component video or S-video) to record to a DVR (such as Tivo®) or DVD recorder. For more on how the different video formats compare, check out "Source-To-Sense."

Digital Video Interface. DVI is an interface that allows for the transfer of a digital video signal from a computer to a display, which increases the image quality and performance over a comparable analog system. The white connection seen on the left-hand side of this graphics card's back plate is a DVI connection. DVI is not only being used in computers, but as an interface for televisions to display high quality images from HDTV, DVD, and other digital sources. There are three levels to of DVI connectors: DVI-A (DVI Analog) - this is an analog ONLY DVI connector (you don't get the benefits of the digital signal - fortunately, you really don't see these anymore); DVI-D (DVI Digital) - this is a DVI connector that ONLY puts out a digital signal; DVI-I (DVI Digital OR Analog) - this is the most common connector. It can output a Digital signal or an Analog signal. When using a DVI connector with an analog monitor (either a DVI-A or DVI-I connector), you will usually need an DVI to VGA Adapter, Sometimes this is provided by the video card manufacturer, but often times it is not. When most card manufacturers ads refer to their cards having a "DVI connecter," they most often mean a DVI-I connector.
Digital Video Interface - a specification created to accommodate analog and digital monitors with a single connector. There are three configurations DVI-A handles analog signals, DVI-D is for digital signals, and DVI-I (integrated) is designed for both analog and digital signals.
Digital Video Interface. A digital connection used for LCD monitors. Because LCD screens operate with a digital signal, it saves the digital to analog, and then back to digital conversion a regular monitor connecter would use. This produces a sharper image on digital monitors.
Digital Visual Interface, a digital video-only input or output
Digital Visual Interface. Connection standard developed by Intel for connecting computers to digital monitors such as flat panels and DLP projectors. A consumer electronics version, not necessarily compatible with the PC version, is used as a connection standard for HDTV tuners and displays. Transmits an uncompressed digital signal to the display. The latter version uses HDCP copy protection to prevent unauthorized copying. See also HDMI.
The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is an interface standard developed to efficiently connect computers to digital flat-panel display monitors. Currently, flat-panel displays are typically connected to an analog video graphics array (VGA) interface and, thus, require a double conversion. The digital signal from the computer must be converted to an analog signal for the analog VGA interface, then converted back to a digital signal for processing by the flat-panel display. The double conversion of the video signal is inefficient and degrades video quality. On the other hand, when a flat-panel display is connected to a digital interface, no digital-to-analog conversion is required. The DVI interface is increasing in popularity and is expected to become widely used for digital display devices, including flat-panel displays and digital CRTs.
A DVI connection is capable of high bandwidths required to support very high resolution screens. DVI connection is used by some advanced set-top boxes to carry High Definition (HDTV) signals to your TV.
DVI is a standard that provides a high-bandwidth, low-cost digital interface between a video source and a display device. It is capable of carrying uncompressed unprotected high resolution video transfers of HDTV signals, and supports real-time complex graphics displays and user interfaces found in program guides andother interactive features for high definition television.
The "digital video interface" standard developed by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG). DVI may be a replacement for analog VGA monitor interface as well as standard component video. The DVI signal is actually digital component video, and has the same performance as standard component video. Sometimes the DVI interface includes HDCP - High-Definition Copy Protection, which prohibits all ability to record or copy the content.
Designed to accommodate both analog and uncompressed digital video signals with a single connector.
DVI refers to the digital interface between projectors and PCs. A projector that has DVI can send a digital-to-digital connection, without converting to analog, thereby delivering a clearer image. The general rule with DVI cables is that 5m (16ft) is the maximum length for trouble-free operation.
digital visual interface. A kind of interface between PCs and flat-panel monitors. Digital means that the monitor and PC communicate in digital signals, rather than having to translate between analogue and digital, providing steadier images.
Digital Visual (or Video) Interface.
Digital Visual Interface. A digital video signal connectivity standard that uses an uncompressed digital signal. DVI does not carry an audio signal, while the similar HDMI standard does. DVI signals are used in both home theater and computing. The DVI-I connector carries digital or analog while the DVI-D carries digital only. The two are compatible although an adapter may be needed to connect one to the other.
Digital Visual Interface. DVI is a technology developed by a consortium of companies that enables a system to store and display moving video images. A DVI connector is more advanced than a standard VGA connector. With DVI all content transferred over the interface remains in the loss-less digital domain from start to finish for high-quality digital images.
DVI is the Digital Video Interface that connects the flat panel to the graphics card of the PC. The DVI interface allows a flat-panel display to be connected via a digital interface; no digital-to-analog conversion is required as with the VGA analog connection. DVI delivers a great image and focus.
DVI - Digital Visual Interface: A digital connection between a video source and a monitor, often used for connetions between HDTV components as well. To see what a DVI connector looks like on the back of a TV click here. There are two official types of DVI connections: DVI-D is the DVI connection used for digital displays (HDTV's, LCD monitors). DVI-I is made for PC use and includes DVI-D and DVI-A (which is just a VGA signal sent down extra pins in the DVI port for backwards compatbility with older analog PC monitors). These all share a common physical connector, it is about the pins present inside of this connector. DVI also comes in single-link or dual-link, most graphics cards on the market today are single-link. Dual-link essentially combines the bandwidth of two DVI transmitters into one for ultra high resolution displays. Dual-link is not necessary for 720p and even 1080p just fits within the single-link bandwidth. DVI's cousin, HDMI type A, is single link as well.
Digital Visual Interface. The DVI port provides a pure digital video signal to a digital flat-panel display or projector. Using a digital signal for the entire path maintains the image quality at the highest level, because the signal is not degraded as a result of a digital-to-analog conversion.
