    Certain "Class 2" HDMI cables can be marginal at 4K 60 Hz

    For some time, a "Class 2" HDMI cable (part number BN39-01583B) supplied with a Samsung 4K 60 Hz display sometimes causes the display to overlay a few horizontal lines of flickering pixels of random colours and sometimes drops out, particularly on content requring HDCP.
    Since changing the cable to a thicker Class 2 unit, this problem has not occured again - do you know of other marginal "Class 2" HDMI cables supplied with displays?
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

      Certain DisplayPort-HDMI cables can disable HDMI CEC communication
      by japlytic
      With a setup including a TV and AV receiver where HDMI Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) and Audio Return Channel (ARC) functions were working, these two functions stopped working after changing some connections (not the one between the AV receiver and TV), so I believed it was a corrupt setting in the AV receiver or TV, but when I disconnected a passive DisplayPort-HDMI cable (which a Multimode DisplayPort connector supports HDMI with a low cost passive cable or adaptor) connected to a home theatre PC, HDMI CEC and ARC functionality was restored.
      An examination of the HDMI CEC wiring...

      ESD Diode on HDMI output of Yamaha a1050 RCVR
      by budwich
      I lost one of the two hdmi outputs on a yamaha rx-a1050 receiver. Of course, it is the hdmi1 which has the arc capability which was useful. The second output hdmi works OK.

      I got an hdmi breakout board which gave me access to the "little guys" in the hdmi. I did some gross DC voltage measurements to ground and found that the Data1 pair (4 and 6) had a lower voltage than the working hdmi.... 1.1v versus 2.9. All others pins seem to be OK. Further when plugged into a display, there is no video but a message on the screen which I assume is the display's status for the...

      Philips 55OLED803/12 HDMI ports "half" defective
      by Wittie
      Hello everyone, Please excuse my poor English, but I'm using Google Translate ^^ I'm having a problem with the HDMI and USB ports on my 55OLED803/12. It's no longer possible to connect an HDMI device and see the picture. No matter which port I use, it only recognizes the device as an input source and displays it in the list (BD player, Fire TV, etc.). However, the actual picture doesn't appear in the same state. My home theater system also runs via the BD player - it still receives a signal and plays the sound correctly (e.g., from the TV program or an app like Netflix). This works with both HDMI...
