The SC-BT222 has 1 x HDMI inputs. HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface and is a standard used for audio / visual equipment. Like the older scart, HDMI is a port that allows you to connect things like Blu-ray players and games consoles to your television. Unlike scart, they're very easy to plug in - and take up a fraction of the space scart leads do. HDMI allows for HD devices to send high resolution information to the television. HDMI is an uncompressed digital signal, as opposed to previous analog interfaces such as S-Video, component video and composite video. In short, HDMI is the best way to connect your AV equipment and is going to be with us a good way into the future. There's a really good blog post over at Hi-Def hardware if you'd like to find out more.
The Panasonic SC-BT222 is what's called full HD, which is often written as 1080p. This means that it supports the highest level of detail. A full HD resolution spans 1920 x 1080 pixels. The 1080p refers to the number of vertical lines that the product can show. 1080p is also a widescreen resolution. There's a huge, exhaustive article at HDTV test which has everything you'd want to know about 1080p, as well as a good question and answers section at the end.
2.1 channel sound is a stereo sound system used on home theatre systems. It uses two stereo speakers and a subwoofer to play sound. It aims to create surround sound without the need for rear speakers. It's designed to produce a rich movie theatre sound without extra speakers and wires.
