I wonder abt some hdmi cables that are incapable of displaying 1080p .. work fine on 720p/1080i display

HDMI Licensing, LLC announced that cables would be tested as Standard or High-Speed cables.

* Standard (or “category 1”) HDMI cables have been tested to perform at speeds of 75Mhz or up to 2.25Gbps, which is the equivalent of a 720p/1080i signal.

* High Speed (or “category 2”) HDMI cables have been tested to perform at speeds of 340Mhz or up to 10.2Gbps, which is the highest bandwidth currently available over an HDMI cable and can successfully handle 1080p signals including those at increased color depths and/or increased refresh rates from the Source.

i've checked my hdmi cable box, says High Speed...

sorry just saw this.....i just use a THINNER HDMI cable and i can connect to 1080p but the other braided one doesnt work!.....maybe one is 1.3 and the other is not.....but funny thing, my fren's ps3 can connect to 1080p using both cables......so could there be something wrong with the ps3 itself?

Might be your equipment.

If your friend had less AV equipment, there would be less interference.

ok a noob question.

i bought a cap ayam hdmi cable worth RM39 (1.5m) from Carrefour. For quality wise, if compare to official Sony one which cost RM99, is that both also deliver the same quality pics/resolution in full hd tv?

thanks for enlighthen

Theoretically, it should

same quality pics/resolution...
no different...

both tested in my house! thats the funny thing......and seriously i dont have any av equipment.......

Maybe its problem with the Slim

My friend also got problem with cap ayam 1080p

i think sometimes its just the cable.......maybe quality diff

mine n my fren both ps3 phat 40gb spore....really mystery!

terion is the one with the slim........

bring ur ps3 to ur friends house to see if ps3 is at fault....

Any chance you guys using Samsung?

i tested with sony cat-2 cable oso flickering any idea why?...aihz..tv full hd supports to 1080p...cant seem to solve this problem for quite a long long time T_T

xtau la

dont be surprise if suddenly u use a lousy lookin HDMI cable and the prob can be solved!

what tv model u using?

I'm not too sure.
Sometimes, it may be the HDMI silicon in the PS3 being the fault.

A full system reset may fix the problem, but don't bet on it.

one of the ps3 mysteries!
