Always thought that display port is better anyways lol. Anything that HDMI does or have that display port doesnt?
Support on low end devices
Audio? Forgive my ignorance, It is out of actual ignorance or rather lack of knowledge
Naah, DisplayPort carries everything from audio, USB, displays, etc. Version 1.2 even allows daisy chaining displays, so you don't have to have number of cables going to your PC. When it comes to audio, version 1.4 supports 1536 kHz maximum sample rate at 24bits and supports 32 individual audio channels. Scary good! Overall it's significantly better protocol.
DisplayPort supports audio.
I'm more recent implantations of DP have audio
I guess HDMI-CEC and some DRM.
DisplayPort supports CEC and HDCP DRM.
I have yet to see a reason why HDMI is better than DP other than what port is available on your device.
Yeaj, unfortunately most TVs only have HDMI, not DP
Really? Seems like I am late to the party.
Protocol level DRM?
