Hi guys,
I've just installed a Optoma HD36 and it is connected to my Denon AVRX2200W along with my Samsung UE55JU6400. The original 10m HDMI lead was slightly too short so I ended up running it via a Cat5 extender (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0130V7KCQ/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and to begin with it worked perfectly, however it has now seemed to have developed some HDCP issues. The Xbox was originally fine but just before I went to turn it off it lost the picture. Then while using the PS4, the picture just disappeared, I managed to remote in and disable HDCP and the picture reappeared. I also tried to patch in a Sky box and that won't display at all and now neither will the Xbox.
Would I be better ditching the Cat5 extender and getting a 15m HDMI lead?
Thanks for the help!
