Hi i was just browsing by and come across you guys saying about bandwidth. From what i know bandwidth between devices is controlled by hardware. Not cables. If you are talking about bandwidths then i assume binary data 1 and 0. If the source can send 1000 kbps from source, of course the receiver should be able to cope with 1000 kbps. But i'm comparing CAT 5 LAN cables. The only time there would be bottleneck is if you have too many receiving units.

Now if digital signals sent from player to TV is just straight there. There should not be bandwidth problem. Unless the TV uses old or slow hardware to decipher to video/sound data.

In CAT 5 LAN cables, line quality is affected with length starting from 100M above. But HDMI cables are so short. Hardly more than 3 Metre.

My logic is purely on hardware and not much from cables. I was wondering why u guys talk about bandwidth? I do not think there is any relation of the cables to bandwidth of TV and player hardware.
