Need some help

[rap129]

My HDMI cables are not working. I have a 32 in tv I use them on and they work fine,but when i switch to my 51 inch TV they don't. Any ideas of what the problem is? Sorry If it's in the wrong forums..

Maybe you need a higher speed cable for the new tv? Atleast I think you can get different speed HDMI cables..

What are you trying to connect to the TV?

Use them how? In, Out, both? In from what? Out to what?

Correct source selected on the TV?

My PS3, it will eork on the 32 inch but not 51. I tried holding down the button and all that

Suggestion: Buy new HDMI Cable. Preferably one of the higher end ones. The one you have might not be able to transmit the bandwidth that your 51" TV requires. Chuck in $20 for a really high end cable, and you might have a winner. Ask others before doing this though.

Solved.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. And expensive HDMI cable is NOT necessary. An HDMI cable transfers a digital signal from one place to another. It either works or it doesn't. If you're paying more than $5-10 for a 6', you're paying too much.

This, times infinity. High end cables for digital signals are pointless. And you can get them for under $5, at least before shipping.

Honestly, it sounds like you have input on the larger television not properly selected, seeing as how the cable is working for your other TV. Do you know what resolutions the two TV's run at, not that it should be an issue...

So PS3 HDMI out is connected to one of the TV's HDMI inputs. MAKE SURE it's an input, like HDMI 1 or HDMI 2 (however they're labelled) and not HDMI OUT. Then make sure you've actually selected that input on the TV's remote. It doesn't automatically switch to it just because it's there.

Sorry guys, I didn't realize in the US they are that cheap. Here in AU, for a high end cable, a price of $20 is cheap. From what I knew it had something to do with bandwidth, clearly I was wrong. My apologies, ignore my previous post.

I get mine from Officeworks, Braided, Good Quality, 1.8M for $17.

Sweet, I'll look into that ^^

I don't really wanna use the crappy one that comes with my graphics card, userally they're rubbish to give them a compliment.

They're these ones.
