Lindy 38023 Extender NOT passing HD Signals to Optoma projector
Posted: Thu Jan 02, 2014 1:31 am
I have an Optoma H78 Projector which worked fine using a 15mtr Progold HDMI to DVI lead in HD from both my SKY HD Box and Panasonic Blu-ray player.
Recently the HDMI plug on one end of the cable became faulty, so I decided to change the system using good quality CAT6 cables and the Lindy 38023 Extender.
Once everything was connected, I could not get a picture at all to my Optoma H78 Projector from the SKY HD Box using this system, it just simply showed a blank screen. I then connected it to my Panasonic Blu-ray player/recorder and the projector worked but only delivering a Standard Definition resolution.
I then connected the unit to my Panasonic Full HD TV and it worked just fine and in High Definition mode too on both the SKY HD Box and Blu-ray recorder.
The H78 is a great projector but is now around 5 years old, but cannot understand why it doesnt work in High definition mode using this Lindy system, but works using an HDMI to DVi long 15mtr cable?
Please can anyone help to answer this query.
Many thanks in advance for your help.
