And I always thought it was the power cord.I love this statement. "The HDMI cable connecting the player to the system has become the most important audio cable in the entire system."
I like your new AvitarI love this statement. "The HDMI cable connecting the player to the system has become the most important audio cable in the entire system."
The cable connection on your other HMDI probably became loose you could more than likely could have achieved the same results bu reseating your first HDMI cable.Im a rookie and still learning about cables...and all the BS out there
But I will say, I bought a $50 HDMI cable, and in 1080p my ps3 had white spots , like stars, during HD playback on my 42" LCD.
I upgraded to a $70 Rocketfish and the problem stopped....
Can someone explain why? Is it that I spent more? Or that the Rockeetfish brand is just better? It seems that spending more did improve performance in this case...
As usual the best answer , unless the "H" is defective on the HMIAnd I always thought it was the power cord.
How long is the cable? The TV may be sensitive to signal strength? Most likely the latter is the case unless the cable is long.Im a rookie and still learning about cables...and all the BS out there

It's hard to say based just on one sentence. It coulda been loose, poorly made, or just could have been a defective cable (it happens).Im a rookie and still learning about cables...and all the BS out there

I wouldn't hold my breath on them actually sending one...I requested a 10 meter sample for testing which costs almost as much as all of the A/V gear in my rack
Why's that? You know that it only cost them about $10.
) but since its a digital cable, if the source gets the signal, every single one is the same. The source just can't kind of get it right? It either works perfectly or it doesnt work at all?
Not quite. The testing that I've seen shows instances where there is a signal at the other end but that it is not the original signal. There's more than one source for that, but why not link to an AH article?
Here is one written by Clint last year. Check out the section on the first page entitled "Digital Is Digital, Right?"
