What is this? So: PC&gt;[HD-Link]&gt; --------------------Ethernet Cable-----------------&gt;[HD-Link]&gt;----... Cable------------&gt;TV.? When these are connected and powered then I play the movie in PC and watch on my TV?

No, these are to pass an HDMI signal over CAT 5/6. If you had HDMI out on your computer you could do that. These basically allow long distance runs of HDMI.

It is just a switch. If you know how to connect your devices with an ethernet switch, it is theoretically fast enough for HD streaming. But I did not use it for that purpose before.

Hello Richard, The Ethernet component does not affect the Audio or Video. This is a built-in feature that would allow you to utilize Ethernet sharing via HDMI ports if your devices support this. As of right now, there are no devices on the market that support this function but the idea is that if you have internet access using your BluRay player, then you could share that internet access with your smart TV if both the smart TV and the BluRay player supported Ethernet sharing via HDMI. This would eliminate the need for additional WiFi connections or a separate Ethernet cable to the TV. But again, this is not currently being used in today's devices to my knowledge. It was included in the latest HDMI specification and so our cable has the ability.

I have the HDMI out from my cable box going to my Onkyo receiver, and then from the receiver through the adapter to a projector. Works fine, except for some reason I could not get shielded twisted pair Cat4 to work, only unshielded. I don't know if anyone else has had this problem.

Unless a monitor has a TV tuner I don't see how (or why) it would have HDCP support. This technology would be in the PC itself, not the monitor.

you sure you don't have the cable in the audio pc/hmdi input (this connection is in "input 5" box, just above and to the right of the digital audio output; i believe this is the same connection type...) judging by the lack of picture instead of audio, that is my best guess anyway. someone correct me if i'm wrong (my tv is hanging and i cannot really see the connections), but i do not believe this device has a standard audio output (besides the headphone out)...

I prefer to hook my critical video equipment, especially reference equipment, directly to my monitor. You can use the ARC HDMI to get TV sound out of the Receiver. there 'has' to be 'some' information lost in the translation, imo.

Ok this is how we used the cables. We had purchased a new TV (Sears), a sony blu ray w/built in WiFi (Amazon), and a 4 way HDMI switch w/wireless remote (Walmart) that were all connected to each other with the cables. Since we have a wireless router in the house for internet, we didn't have to do anything with the router or computer. This basically turns your TV into a big screen tablet. Hope this helps.

if I am connection through the pc (most prob. RS 232 port ) then what is the ethernet (internet) Jack is there for ?Does anyone know ?

If both your computer and your TV have an HDMI receptacle it should be easy. I only had to plug it in bring in the component on my TV and we watched the "Circque de Soliel" movie within a half an hour of my receiving the Cable. BlueRigger makes a great cable. True sound and picture. Good Luck.

Well doesn't amazon sell hdmi cables with ethernet? so im assuming that if you hook up the ps3 to the internet via wifi to your router, and then hook up an hdmi ethernet cable from your ps3 to you tv..shouldn't that give your tv internet?it is worth a try [i really don't know if it will work since i don't have either, just using advanced common sense :)

OMG... I've been looking all over for information like this myself. Seems to be an alien concept.I don't want a TV signal in my house, cable or otherwise. But I'd love to watch movies conveniently. If I knew I could disable the tuner source, I'd buy a nice TV in a heartbeat. Conversely, if I knew I could easily hook up a variety of movie sources to, say, an LCD monitor, I'd do that. But I can't find clear info on either configuration.

Thanks for your question. Ethernet will not convey via HDMI. Only audio and video. This is a fantastic sounding receiver. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud Marantz dealer.

I don't know. I connect from my computer to my TV so that movies playing on my computer can be seen on the TV. I can tell you that the sound is also transferred to the TV via the cable but I do not have a gaming system so am not really qualified to recommend yea or nay to your question.

I'm afraid I am also stumped getting a signal to the TV. Currently I'm settling for VGA and audio to the high definition TV. The definition on more recent videos is quite good with this hookup. From the information from my graphics card coupled with the TV manual, the hookup is not simple. Sorry.

This system will be too slow. Ethernet cannot send enough data for a movie to play well. The system will hangup. You are better off using separate hard disks connected to each TV. Just make a copy of each disk.
