HDMI cable -> 16mm tube

Post by **Alexander** » Mon Jul 13, 2009 1:37 pm

The problem with a regular HDMI cable is the connectors that won't fit or can't get pulled in such a tube.
@enver: Is there a HDMI cable that has only one HDMI connector connected to it or are you thinking of cutting the cable?

I will cut th cable 50 cm before the connector and will try soldering the ends.
But first I will tray the mini connector hope this one will fit.

nice...but a extra device

I don't need the voice part at the beamer side other option is maybe as Bastiaan suggested using component.
this are only 3x2 cables

Nice there is component on the beamer and receiver that I'm interested in
http://www.kieskeurig.nl/projector_beam ... 00/290720/
Receiver will be Denon 3808A or the 4308A both with ethernet connection and Homeseer plugin..

Denon has also a new blu-ray with ethernet DBP-2010

Isn't 16:10 projection the new way to go?

does component supports 1080p with hdcp ?
One of those reasons in cant connect my playstation3 on my beamers dvi port.

component is analog, not digital like hdmi/dvi-d so you have no hdcp, I would go for hdmi with modern devices. Component is only interesting as a fallback, if your tv/beamer doesn't support hdcp on it's hdmi/dvi port and you need to connect your modern dvd player/playstation3. (that the case with my hardware)

I wouldn't go component, HDMI is quality-wise MUCH better. I would also say, when soldering wires, I would advise to just buy a connector; normailly connectors are quite "easy" solderable.

(looking into getting a receiver too [:)] )
Note that not all Denon's convert video equally (eg no hdmi to component on the 3808, see p8 of the manual).
And then there's HDCP; apparently when/if that will be fully enforced (2014?), a protected blueray disc only allows 540p if the handshake fails (like for a component connection). Today a protected disc will apparently allow at most 1080i over an analog connection.
Wether the difference in picture quality is noticable is a whole different story [;)]
