QUOTE(Eoma @ Mar 26 2010, 06:03 PM) I have a Sharp LC37A65M and using Belkin HDMI cables. Works great. A cheap HDMI cable has blinking dots @ 1080p 60Hz. If I drop it to 1080p 24Hz it's ok. I use that cable for the WDTV live. edit: wrong quote. ehehe.

QUOTE(Joey Christensen @ Mar 27 2010, 01:24 PM) I bought mine from ALL IT Hypermarket Sdn. Bhd. last time. Ever since I took it out from the packaging until today, no problem or whatsoever. I'm satisfy with the product. I have two Belkin HDMI cables (I have one which is about one year plus and another one is a few months old) and both are working perfectly. No complaint or whatsoever so far. Regards, Joey QUOTE(Eoma @ Mar 27 2010, 03:41 PM) Like Joey, I got mine from All IT Hypermarket @ Ikano. About RM60 if I'm not mistaken. Ah thx for the tip! Will definitely try it out

QUOTE(JasonSky @ Mar 28 2010, 04:11 AM) Ah thx for the tip! Will definitely try it out  Bought a Belkin HDMI Cable from All IT last night for RM59 and to my dismay it didn't work on my Sharp a66  When I plugged it in on 1080p there are white dots running all over the place and sound skips. Tried it on all my HDMI ports with the same results. However the one I purchased is a 2008 model with a short head (about 1 inch) in a plastic packaging. I notice there was another 2007 model with a longer head (about 2 inch) that came in a black paper box packaging. Which one you guys are using?

QUOTE(ffrulz @ Mar 29 2010, 04:41 PM) If changing cables do not work, I would suspect its a problem with either the PS3's HDMI port or your monitor's. The cables all work perfectly fine with my other Sony LCD TV. But all my other Sharp a66 faces the same problems at 1080p.

QUOTE(Eoma @ Mar 29 2010, 05:35 PM) The black paper box packaging. Hmm, could be your TV's HDMI port dude. Tried changing ports ? p/s: I noticed you mentioned "all my other A66" - you have >1 Sharp A66 ? Yeap tried changing ports as well. And yeah I actually have 4 Sharp a66 QUOTE(Joey Christensen @ Mar 30 2010, 10:03 AM) I bought mine (Belkin HDMI cable) with the transparent plastic packaging. The cable is in black colour and the HDMI head is gold colour. The length is 1.2metres. Regards, Joey Ah yeah I saw that too with the price tag of RM89 for the gold head. They one I bought is a silver head with plastic packaging at RM59. Hmmm... now thinking to either buy another Belkin or just get the official Sony PS3 HDMI cable... Troublesome nya... already have 4 HDMI cables This post has been edited by JasonSky: Mar 30 2010, 05:54 PM

QUOTE(Joey Christensen @ Mar 30 2010, 05:25 PM) Wouldn't it be better if you just stick to one brand only? Find the best that can serve you in the long run and stick to it like there's no tomorrow. Maybe I'm more of a "standardised" person or maybe it's just my personal preference. Regards, Joey p.s: Find one that is most suitable for your hardware compatibility and stick to it. You can sell the unused HDMI cables to others if you want. Have always been a one brand person however I am yet to find a brand that is actually suitable for my current hardware. Hence when I saw someone posting that he got his Belkin HDMI too work on his a66 I was aesthetic but it didn't work on mine  Will most likely starting posting HDMI cables in the Garage Sales soon.

QUOTE(Cloud77 @ Apr 1 2010, 10:57 AM) I understand your frustration. I also have the same problem with Sharp LCD A66. I had purchased 5 HDMI cables!  I'm thinking to sell all my HDMI cables at garage sales. Anyone interested? The last cable I purchased is Sony Official High Speed HDMI v1.3a cable at RM199. This cable is most stable but still occassionally flicker or disconnected (blackout). Conclusion, PS3 Slim is not compatible with Sharp LCD A66 at 1080p. Set at 720p. Almost all games are running at 720p currently. I have tried out MGS4 at 720p and it looks good and similar to my eyes in comparison to 1080p.  So, don't waste money try any other cables. In a sad way good to hear I am not facing this problem alone! I am also starting to conclude that Sharp a66 is not compatible with PS3 on 1080p. Will try to get my hands on my cousin's phat version to test and see if the phat version has the same problems.
