10m.. 15m.. is too long for a HDMI cable without any signal booster especially if the cables are thin. The picture quality degraded.

Yes I have, it not only affects HDMI cables, VGA, audio cables etc are also affected, when it's too long, the signal degrades hence if you are going to use such long wires, you need a signal booster.

Yes, you need signal booster unless the HDMI you bought has guarantee from manufacturer (which they normal will mentioned the longest length before signal will be lost) that there'll be no signal lost for certain length. If you exceed that length then you need a booster.

and those HDMI cables which have quite a long length before any signal is loss is very thick and expensive tongue.gif
