fuzzydog Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Writing to see if you guys could help me diagnose what appears to be an HDMI related issue in my Home Theater. When watching a movie on blueray through our projector, the image will occasionally cut out for several seconds. This happens at random and occurs maybe 2-4 times over the course of a movie. The projector is connected to my receiver with a Monoprice Cabernet HDMI cable with redmere technology. The cable length is 25' or 30'...i cant remember which length specifically. Does anyone else have this problem and know what might be the cause? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 i guess you could always take your blu ray player out of your rack and a separate hdmi cable and hook it up to see if it does the same thing. could be a faulty disc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called them and they recommended their generic non Redmere My cable run is 40' and since replacing, it has been flawless. I'll post a link shortly to the one I exchanged for. They are awesome accommodating returns and exchanges btw.

The issue pops up regardless of which movie i'm watching so it's not the disk. I also have a TV connected to the receiver via a separate HDMI cable and i never have issues while watching a movie on the TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap, this cable runs inside the wall and ceiling. Replacing it could be a pain in the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a monoprice passive cable, 35ft.. all working well except for the connectors are so darn fragile. I passed mine thru the sofits with hopefully enough space to pull a new one if needed. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
