Solution Wolfshadw Nov 21, 2013 Just go with this and call it a day: 20ft 24AWG CL2 Standard HDMI® Cable - Black. I'm running a 35ft 24AWG DVI to HDMI cable from my HTPC to my projector for blu-ray playback without any issues. -Wolf sends

Emerald Distinguished Moderator Aug 28, 2005 563 1 19,210 Nov 21, 2013 #4 what kind of HDMI cables are they? HDMI 1.3 Standard (Category1, 28 AWG) or High Speed (Category2, 24 AWG) a HDMI Standard cable starts showing problems when longer than 16ft. use one of these with a 10ft and a 6ft cable http/www.walmart.com/ip/4XEM-HDMI-A-Female-to-HDMI-A-Female-Adapter-Coupler/27746895 Upvote 0 Downvote
