    Philips 42PF7220 can't get HDMI from Hotwire box

    I had Hotwire installed in my community and had to make the switch from Comcast. When they hooked up the Pace IPH8005 STB to my old Philips 42PF7220 Plasma it would work with HDMI. We ended up having to connect through component cables. I was told that the ipTV format was the cause and there was no software update for the old Philips to fix it. Has anyone experienced anything similar and was there a work around.

    Thanks,

    It may be that your Philips TV does not support the latest HDCP (data encryption/copy protection) features the Pace box requires.

      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...

      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...

      Toshiba 50UL2063DB randomly rebooting with HDMI-CEC and/or HDMI-ARC enabled
      by spleenharvester
      I have this TV hooked up to only an AppleTV 4K and a Creative soundbar. Originally HDMI-CEC and HDMI-ARC wouldn't work at all, I replaced all the HDMI cables with decent UGREEN cables meeting the latest standards, now it all works perfectly but once or twice a day the TV itself reboots while watching a program, the AppleTV keeps running. I haven't fully pinned down whether it is ARC or CEC causing it yet. All are running latest firmware.

      I assume it is just HDMI-CEC being buggy as usual on a shitty Vestel machine, but can anyone think of anything I can try before disabling it?
