A high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) receiver apparatus is provided. The HDMI receiver apparatus includes a pin, a control module, and an extended display identification data (EDID) module. The pin is used to receive an HDMI cable connection voltage in a first operation state and output a hot plug detection signal in a second operation state. The control module is connected with the pin. When the pin receives the HDMI cable connection voltage in the first operation state, the control module switches the pin to the second operation state from the first operation state and outputs the hot plug detection signal to an HDMI transmitter apparatus through the pin, such that the HDMI transmitter apparatus reads EDID information according to the hot plug detection signal. The EDID module is used to store the EDID information.
