The dumb ass is NOTHING like 'a tech'. He can't even grasp a fucking ferrite bead without mucking up a Usenet news group with off topic baby bullshit. And as long as he has been fucking things up by 'taking things apart', one would think he would have come across a fucking EMI trap before. Let alone the way he blames everything but himself for the stupid shit he does to break his gear. One's A/V Receiver does NOT output ANY HDMI signals that would damage ANY video card. He is a clueless twerp, and ranks only a couple rungs below you.
Thick/fat/adapter/cylinder like section on HDMI cable ? What is it ? What does it do ?

How does PVC do that? -- Jeff

If you drop the cable onto the floor, these thick lumps in the cable will hit the floor first, thus protecting the connector from impact damage. If you step on the connector, the thick bumps will cause the connector to bend, instead of break or become flattened.

They have some sort of repeaters/equalizers inside. -- John Larkin Highland Technology, Inc picosecond timing precision measurement jlarkin att highlandtechnology dott com http://www.highlandtechnology.com

Google for "HDMI cable with built in signal booster" <https://www.google.com/search?q=hdmi+cable+with+built+in+signal+booster> They're mostly found in long, 50 to 100ft cables. Besides an amplifier, they also include an equalizer to provide a flat frequency response. These are very much a necessity if you want to go any distance with 4K (or 8K?) video. However, I've never used such a cable and didn't know that they were unidirectional. Whenever I run into a lousy image that seems to be a cable problem, I use an external signal booster or extender. <https://www.startech.com/AV/Extenders/HDMI/HDMI-signal-booster-extender~HDBOOST4K> <https://www.startech.com/AV/Extenders/HDMI/hdmi-amplifier~HDBOOST> There are far more expensive than amplified cables, but offer fewer surprises, work with DisplayPort, and usually work with existing in the wall HDMI wiring. Hopefully, when everything has 802.11ad 60GHz wireless built in, such HDMI kludges will go away. -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@cruzio.com 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558
