    schan1269, hello, I have no idea...I heard it from some source, but I just called Samsung, and YES, all the TV's since 2007, have HDCP. Then, I chatted with monoprice, and that techie suggested I use CATe5/6 Cable for my 40'-50' distance run, INSTEAD of HDMI. He also mentioned I should be...

    HELP on HDMI splitter, for two displays (hdcp issues?)

    Hi and Thanks! I agree...X's and O's, Why am I so confused? Well, the powered HDMI splitters I was looking at from Monoprice, 1x2 HDMI Splitter #10242, and another one, HDMI with 3D/ 4K support #10249. Strongly recommends using 22awg, 24awg, or active cable. The REDMERE 'ACTIVE' cable from...

    HELP on HDMI splitter, for two displays (hdcp issues?)

    Hello, and Thank you! I just called a Video/Audio Store in Anaheim, and he told me he had used both CAT5,6, but he recently changed over to the Monoprice 'REMERE' Cable for distance. The TW cable signal is not the best, so I do not want to waste money if the picture won't make any difference, by...

    HDMI cable in RX-V675 always moving around,losing signal

    I thought that the Yamaha Receiver's female Display/TV IN-HDMI just got a little stretched out, causing this problem, and since I had another six months left on the Five year warranty, I took it back to Fry's and got a newer model replacement. This was fine for the first three months, now it's...

    Samsung A750 TOS/HDMI connection?

    Someone told me to turn on the Samsung TV Speakers....they don't work. I guess once I plugged in the HDMI cable, the sound only from Cable/TV broadcasts come through to the Receiver,not the TV onboard content library or any music /video from flash drives connected to the side of the TV.

    HDMI cables for 60Hz/120/240?

    I have a Samsung A750, and bought an in-wall 1.3 rated HDMI cable from Monoprice.com. I never looked at the transfer rate thinking it didn't matter, since nothing is broadcast in 120 or even 240 yet anyway,so why the difference? My brother, trying to up one on me, just purchased a 52" B750...

    Samsung A750 TOS/HDMI connection?

    When I hooked up my TV on the wall, quite a few people told me all I needed was one HDMI from TVDisplay to the AVR. Anyone familiar with these new Samsungs know about the side USB for Flash Videos and MP3 playability, not to mention the onboard TV Content Library. I tried to play a flash drive...

    Yamaha665,6.1 speakers, will this do?

    Wayne, ;) What a busy Monday, eh? I do appreciate the help. I might be using two DVD players (unless I can find a cheap Yamaha Ipod dock to play mp3's) because the Sony BD350 Blu-Ray does not support MP3 playback, and I like the menu visuals better on the Panasonic DVD/CD player with MP3's...
