RE: HDMI over CAT5
On a related subject, I've just run a 50mtr HDMI cable to a TV, and it
*was=
* working fine. I then fitted an HDMI wall socket, plugged the 50mtr cable
=
into the back of that, then ran a 1mtr cable to the TV, and now there's no
=
picture, and the PC doesn't even detect a connection. I was expecting
mayb=
e some dropout, but not for it to fail altogether...is that how HDMI is,
al=
l or nothing?

The 50mtr cable was an eBay special, and I know that's at the limit of the
=
spec, but it would have been so much easier if it had worked...

I'm almost tempted to buy one at that price "just in case"...
