The HDMI specification is not an open standard; manufacturers need to be licensed by HDMI LA in order to implement HDMI in any product or component. Companies that are licensed by HDMI LA are known as HDMI Adopters. [88] DVI is the only interface that does not require a license for interfacing HDMI. [citation needed]
It can also carry audio, USB, and other forms of data. DisplayPort is backward compatible with other interfaces such as HDMI and DVI through the use of active or passive adapters.

For example, IEEE registration number 00 0C 03 means this is a "HDMI Licensing, LLC" specific data block (contains HDMI 1.4 info), C4 5D D8 means this is a "HDMI Forum" specific data block (contains HDMI 2.0 info), 00 D0 46 means this is "DOLBY LABORATORIES, INC."
Display Data Channel (DDC) is a collection of protocols for digital communication between a computer display and a graphics adapter that enable the display to communicate its supported display modes to the adapter and that enable the computer host to adjust monitor parameters, such as brightness and contrast.
A composite monitor or composite video monitor is any analog video display that receives input in the form of an analog composite video signal to a defined specification. [1] A composite video signal encodes all information on a single conductor; a composite cable has a single live conductor plus earth.
A monitor is typically connected to its host computer via DisplayPort, HDMI, USB-C, DVI, or VGA. Monitors sometimes use other proprietary connectors and signals to connect to a computer, which is less common. Originally computer monitors were used for data processing while television sets were used for video.
Unified Display Interface (UDI) was a digital video interface specification released in 2006 which was based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI). It was intended to be a lower cost implementation while providing compatibility with existing High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) and DVI displays.
Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) is a feature of HDMI designed to control HDMI connected devices [1] [2] by using only one remote controller; so, individual CEC enabled devices can command and control each other without user intervention, for up to 15 devices.
