| New HDMI extender: 24p stuttering and (sometimes) dropouts
So, after having had a lot of troubles with my previous HDMI extender from Neetcables, I bought a different one today (Marmitek). To my surprise, I immeditaly got picture when using the same CAT6 cabling that's inside my ceiling. So far so good.
Unfortunately, not all is good. When I use my Xbox360 and try to play a video (which always starts with a black screen), the Xbox360 shows a puple haze above all blacks. Video looks fine and clear, but the haze is there. When I return to the Xbox dash, everything is normal again?
Also, I noticed a LOT (and I mean a LOT) of stuttering when display 1080p/24 content, both through my Popcorn Hour and my Panasonic BluRay player. I'm using this with a new Optoma HD20 projector, so I'm not exactly sure if this 'problem' is due to the projector or the HDMI extenders. Are extenders know to introduce/augment 24p stuttering?
Anyway, I'm already kinda happy that I do get a picture, i's not perfect for now but will do for a while. Going to pick up a 10m long HDMI cable monday to check if I get the same problems with the cable (dropouts probably not, but the 24p stuttering can be checked with that to see if it's the projector or the extender right?).
