[QUOTE="IndVet, post: 2754788, member: 24467"] My HDMI switch has a power input cable. Did both of yours have power inputs? 50ft sounds like a long ways for HDMI. Found this online: [B]After 25ft they are no longer certified for high speed. Standard speed cables can carry 1080p but it depends on the device is why we only list them as 1080i/720p. Many newer devices though if all you want is 1080p can achieve that with standard speed cables, you only really need a standard speed cable if you are running both 3D and 1080p. - Nick M., Monoprice technical support Think of 25 feet as the magic barrier. You could go longer than that but you'd need to confirm that all of your devices will work with standard speed HDMI cables in order to view 1080p content without concerns.[/B] Sounds like a combination of too much cable going into a switch. Just throwing stuff out there. [/QUOTE]
