Laptop stream to tv Hdmi cable

[Goats left knee]

The picture initially transferred but then went and all I get now is no signal, do I need a better quality cable?

Standard HDMI cables transmit signals at 4 Gbps.

There are between 10 Gbps - 21 Gbps for varying results, in HDMI cables, for signal quality.

been scientifically proven that hdmi cables show exactly the same pictures whether gold plated or not. Poundland do 1m for £1 and i have used the same one for about 2 years now.

Try a different cable if possible and if u still get the same problem try and narrow down whatever else could be causing the problem

Whilst tests have been made, what you have written is a blanket assessment. This is not what I have said.

From a respected cabling outlet:

2.25 Gbps - The minimum bandwidth required to transmit a 720p/1080i signal at 60Hz with 8-bit per channel color depth is 0.75 Gbps per channel, or 2.25 Gbps total.
4.95 Gbps - The minimum bandwidth required to transmit a 1080p signal at 60Hz with 8-bit per channel color depth is 1.65 Gbps per channel, or 4.95 Gbps total.
6.75 Gbps - The minimum bandwidth required to process a Full High Definition 3D signal (1920x1080 resolution for each eye at 24 Hz refresh rate) is 2.25 Gbps per channel, or 6.75 Gbps total.
10.2 Gbps - The current minimum bandwidth requirement of the High Speed HDMI standard is 3.4 Gbps per channel, or 10.2 Gbps total.

Pretty much says what I said.

Most likely the cable but check the output settings are on tv only and not laptop monitor once you connect the lead

[denislawsbackheel]

have you got the tv set for hdmi?

 

[stonerblue]

sounds like a settings on telly problem. check settings for the 'input' you are using.

You might need to change the resolution on your laptop.
