The active cable will still work. Unless your computer has an HDMI 2.2 port which is unlikely it will not power an active cable. All the others are 30ma by spec. and can't be higher. So if not a 2.2 spec HDMI port you will need and HDMI voltage inserter. A USB inserter is no good, you need an HDMI voltage inserter. Searched around a bit and decided to get this from Ruipro directly. Which cable would you recommend from this list (PC to AVR, unable to figure which one to pick up). Could you please share a link where I can get the voltage inserter (from the US)?
