Hech Di Em Ay! :-D

+Ken Ayugi - Many thanks for your feedback Ken. Glad you enjoyed it and fully agree about adding in some illustrations and diagrams for future videos. We're taking this on board and I hope our latest videocasts on HDCP 2.2 and 4k UHD are delivering?.. Thanks for your comments and keep watching / keep sharing! - The HowToAV team

Many thanks for your feedback - glad we could help!

Agreed and updated! Thanks for noting Ross! (Though I do enjoy a good 'haytch' vs. 'aytch' argument!)

Hey! Yes, you can find many great options here: www.gofanco.com/products/hdmi-extenders/hdmi-extenders-wireless-hdmi-extenders.html If you have any questions don't hesitate to message me. Ciao!

Thanks for your question mfranch87; If you're looking to transmit HDMI over Cat cable then we ALWAYS recommend point-to-point. Having a network switch/hub in the equation will pretty much always result in signal drop-out/interference and a very disappointing result! There are a number of options for HDMI over Cat cable as follows: • HDMI-over-Cat Transmitter to Receiver • HDBaseT Lite Transmitter to Receiver • HDBaset 5Play Transmitter to Receiver • HDMI-over-IP Transmitter to Receiver The systems differ in price (we've listed the lowest cost option at the top) with each system having differing capabilities based on image resolution, distance of signal transmission and additional functionality over the cable such as Power-over-Cable, Ethernet and control signals. Hope this helps; if you need any further advice, do let us know!... The HowToAV Team

The higher the grade of ethernet cable you can use on the network the better, of course (certainly to future-proof your system), but certainly ensure that you are using Cat5e minimum.

Good morning Luis and thanks for your question. The Roku device outputs a standard HDMI signal and, therefore, any of the suggested options for extending the HDMI signal should work as described. Thanks for viewing and keep sharing! The HowToAV Team

Hi Moris and thanks for your question. We are currently putting together a new video on just this subject! The problem with the high bandwidth required for UHD is that standard HDMI simply isn't up to it over any significant distance I'm afraid! Even the latest high speed HDMI is limited in its distance capabilities. There are two simple tests to prove its a distance issue... The first is to reduce the output resolution of our Bluray player (to 1080p for example). If it's a bandwith/distance issue, the video should run fine at 1080p. You could also do a quick temporary test with a short HDMI (1 metre) lead. The best solution to this problem is to use a 4k UHD extender kit (eg. HDBaseT) - such as the below link, whihc will allow for long distance UHD transmission over standard CatX cable: shop.cie-group.com/shop/av-distribution_19/hdbaset_1025/hdbaset-transmitters--receivers_1028/60m-hdbaset-lite-receiver-uhd-hdcp22-hdmi20-poh_23867.php shop.cie-group.com/shop/av-distribution_19/hdbaset_1025/hdbaset-transmitters--receivers_1028/60m-hdbaset-lite-transmitter-uhd-hdcp22-hdmi20-poh_23868.php Thanks for watching the channel; please Subscribe for all our latest uploads and please share with your friends!..

+Hellenic Social Many thanks for your email - hopefully we can find a solution!.. 20 metre cables can work, but it's very hit and miss on the quality of thew product and the environment of the cable run. You don't tell us what problem you're experiencing - is it noise on the signal or intermitent drop-out of the signal? If this is the case, then we would definitely suggest this option - the CYP RE-HDEQ - which helps to equalise/re-clock the signal: www.cie-group.com/shop/av-distribution_19/hdmi_1023/hdmi-splitters--repeaters_90/hdmi-hdmi-equaliser_2994.php If you're not receiving any signal at all over the 20metre HDMI cable, I'm afraid you might struggle I'm sorry. Hope this helps!.. The HowToAV Team

Hi Randy - thanks for your message and sorry to hear you're having issues - especially in the festive period! The issue is almost certainly going to be length of cable I'm afraid - HDMI simply doesn't like transmitting too far... Couple of suggestions we recommend you try: The first (low cost option) is to try adding a HDMI Equaliser at the display end of the system. Product such as the CYP RE-HDEQ is worth trying before having to make any significant changes to your system. shop.cie-group.com/shop/av-distribution_19/hdmi_1023/hdmi-splitters--repeaters_90/hdmi-hdmi-equaliser_2994.php If this doesn't rectify the problem, you're going to have replace the 30ft HDMI with a transmitter/receiver-over Cat cable system. shop.cie-group.com/shop/av-distribution_19/hdmi_1023/hdmi-over-cat-x_91/ It does mean running Cat cable through the ceiling, of course. Hopefully you have easy access? (If your HDMI cable is giving you no signal at all and access to run Cat cable isn't ideal, then you could consider using the HDMI cable to pull through the Cat cable? Carefully!) Best of luck - hope this helps... And have a great Christmas! The HowToAV Team

Good morning and many thanks for your question. There really shouldn't be a problem of your repeater overheating, but there are a couple of suggestions we can make... Is this a domestic or a professional repeater that you're using? Remember that domestic products are designed and built to run for perhap 6-7 hours per day, whereas a professional product will be built to run 24-7. The other suggestion to consider is where you have the repeater positioned?.. is it in the loft or in a cupboard which is excessivley warm? and does the repeater have 'room to breath'? Ensure that the device has lots of air space around it and that it's sited in a cool area if possible. Hope this helps, The HowToAV Team

+HowToAV.tv hi there. im not sure if its a domestic repeater or not. its looks like a basic hdmi extender over cat 6 cable, you can say it looks like a coupler. secondly its positioned in a false ceiling in a large hall. Up in the ceiling it looks pretty open as there are other wires for fans and lights. it also important to note that the repeater is connected to a ups.

I filled up my 1 to 4 hdmi splitter. Can I tap another hdmi splitter out of one of the outputs ? My runs are are 15 to 50 feet.

HDMI SIGNALS WILL CAUSE CANCER SAME AS WI FI. JUST USE CABLES. CANCER KILLS 578068 AMERICANS EVERY YEAR. 578000 AMERICANS .THAT IS 1/2 MILLION.HOW MANY 9/11 IS THAT?

Hi Yvonne and thanks for your message. We would need some more information to be able to advise on this one I'm afraid... Can you tell us what devices you have on your system and how they're connected (including cable distances)? Not sure what's meant by the picture 'skipping' - if you want to record some video of the tv skip on your phone and message it over to us, we'd be happy to take a look... findout@howtoav.tv

Good morning Amir and thanks for your question. 4k UHD is going to work just fine, as long as your 'extending device' (such as a Repeater, Splitter, HDBaseT Kit, etc) is 4k UHD supported. The specification of your product should confirm this; check with your supplier to be absolutely sure. Thanks for viewing! The HowToAV Team

Consider yourself replied to Elaine! We do reply to as many questions as we can and you'll often find that our Subscriber community also provides responses and suggestions.

@@HowToAVtv wow!

Sorry we couldn't give you the answer your were looking for Elaine; very surprised if your pay TV source doesn't have an HDMI output? Happy to advise if you want to send us some more details?..

@@HowToAVtv I never said my tv doesn't have an HDMI cable output. Not sure how old you all are, but there were TVs actually made with only AV outputs. Sorry for watching! I saw comments asking for help with NO replies & said so......

atanner4 Well no, if you pronounce it ‘aitch’ dmi then the ‘an’ is correct.
