Hi all
Got a bit of an odd problem, which may be HDMI cable related.
I actually started a thread over on the DVD recorders section, as the issue started with not being able to view SD DVDs on my Oppo UDP-203 4K player.
For info, my TV is a Sony 65" OLED A1 and all my AV equipment is in a cupboard in a different room and goes to TV via a QED 10m active HDMI cable, and none of what I am about to describe has been an issue previously.
After trying the player on a different TV and HDMI cable everything OK, so not the player.
Back to the original set up (over long QED HDMI cable), weirdly, my Amazon Fire TV and set-top TV boxes both play just fine down this cable.
At this stage I figured the cable was the issue and started down the route of sourcing a new cable. But, just before I ‘added to basket’ on a Ruipro 4k hybrid fiber HDMI cable, I thought I’d try different inputs on the TV….
So, my standard input on the TV is HDMI 3 (ARC), via this and HDMI 2 the issue remains, but on HDMI 1 and 4 the original DVD playback issue is fine, go figure!
Now I’m really confused! Any thoughts?
Many thanks.
Andy Parrott.
