“The HDMI Guide.” | Linktree

This is such a big thing and likely when you purchase an HDMI cable that is cheaper just to get along. The HDMI format runs on a 5V DC system typically called the "Hotplug", long cheaper cables risk this 5V dropping below 4.7V resulting in picture and sound loss. Then we have a bandwidth drop when using cables longer than 3m, without an active chipset in the HDMI cable you likely will have errors and issues. Always confirm the cable you plan to purchase conforms to the spec you require. Our soon to be released "Idiots Guide to HDMI" on Kindle will be your ideal guide to everything HDMI.

"Top Tip: Most 'No Signal' HDMI errors are caused by using a cable longer than 15 feet without an active booster. Check your cable length first!"
