I received a new HDMI cable today,
This one to be exact.
15m HDMI Cable with Ethernet - HDbasics
I had already done loads of reading and decided that I was willing to try a cheapish cable as I don't have loads of electrical leads or anything that will cause allot of interference so I went ahead and ordered this cable.
Now this is where I have a bit of confusion.
This cable works perfectly with zero issues when connecting my PC to the tv (via HD5770 1GB) at 1920x1080 while also passing audio over HDMI too, as does the cable work perfectly at 1080p with my xbox 360 and it works perfectly at 1080i with my Sky+ HD again all these are working fine with audio as well as video.
Now when I try it with my ps3 there are white speckles and pretty nasty visual glitches however if I set it to anything less than 1080p it appears to be working fine, so my question is this.
Why can this cable handle 1080p perfectly fine on a PC and an Xbox 360 and have huge problems with the ps3 ?
Is there a setting on the ps3 I need to change or something ?
Does the PS3 have less than perfect HDMI hardware or something ?
This is rather strange and any explanations or tips would be great.
The "buy a better cable" thing would hold water for me if the cable was not working perfectly with everything but the PS3 so I have to lean towards it being the PS3`s fault.
Thanks.
