What is the difference between hdmi hdmi 1.3 and hdmi1.4?

1.4 is just the latest technology. It just means that with a HDMI 1.4 cable, you will get faster data transferring. If I was going to buy a HDMI cable and not know what version to get, I would just get the cheapest one. HDMI 1.4 is the specification for cable that is compatible with 3D transmissions. If you purchase a 1.3 spec cable, it may work with 3D, but it is not guaranteed. 1.4 also has the provision for Audio Return Channel, which may or may not be supported through your equipment.


Can HDMI carry analog audio?

HDMI cables can carry audio but it is in digital format only. Any HDMI connector will be capable of carrying the audio content and any input should be capable of receiving and processing the audio in digital format. There should normally be no need to use analog audio with HDMI but there is one notable exception. HDMI shares the same video interface format as DVI, the digital display output used on computers. However, DVI does not support audio so a cable that links a DVI output to an HDMI input will not carry audio. For this reason, many new televisions have at least one HDMI input that also has an analog audio input associated with the HDMI port. This is specifically provided to cater for DVI + analog audio as delivered by many computers.

Is HDMI 3 better than HDMI 2?

As of my last update, there is no official HDMI 3 standard; the latest version is HDMI 2.1. HDMI 2.1 offers significant improvements over HDMI 2.0, including support for higher resolutions (up to 8K), higher refresh rates, and advanced features like Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) and Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC). If a future HDMI 3 were to be released, it would likely include even more enhancements, but currently, HDMI 2.1 is the most advanced version available.

Why DVD player with HDMI 1.1socket cannot compatible with lcd TVs with HDMI 1.3 socket?

HDMI 1.3 is backwards compatible with HDMI 1.1 so most devices will work together OK. However an HDMI 1.3 source usually has an extra option of sending the audio as a bitstream instead of multiple decoded PCM channels. Most AV Receivers with HDMI inputs can decode a bitstream if used, otherwise they play the PCM channels. When connecting a multi-channel audio source directly to a TV it will often be necessary to set the source to output in 2-channel mode instead of multi-channel mode otherwise no sound at all will be heard.
