Xbox / ps3 with long hdmi
Hi all
Just set up a projector for my friend and we have plugged in his Xbox / ps3 with a 15 m hdmi cable but it don't work, we just get no signal / not supported yet works fine with a shorter cable. The long cable works with sky / Blu ray player Any ideas? Cheers Marc |

Have you tried the long cable connected to something else? It may just be a duff cable.

You may just need a better quality cable, the cable quality is much more critical over the longer distances, yes if it works okay then there is no benefit from a better one but it does have to work.
