Troubleshooting

No picture or sound

Ensure both ends of the HDMI cable are securely connected to the correct ports on both devices. Verify that the source device is powered on and sending a signal. Check that the display device is set to the correct HDMI input source. Try a different HDMI port on the display device.

Flickering screen or intermittent signal loss

Check for damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the cable is not bent sharply or under strain. Test with another HDMI cable to rule out a cable fault. Try reducing the resolution or refresh rate on the source device if it exceeds the cable's capability.

Audio Return Channel (ARC) not working

Ensure ARC is enabled on both your TV and your AV receiver/soundbar in their respective settings menus. Make sure you are using the correct HDMI port labeled 'ARC' on both devices. Confirm that the cable supports ARC and is fully inserted.

Poor video or audio quality (e.g., pixelation, static)

Ensure the cable is fully seated in the ports. Check for any physical damage to the cable or connectors. Try a shorter, higher-quality certified HDMI cable if the issue persists, especially over longer runs or with higher resolutions.

  • Media streaming devices
  • AV receivers and soundbars (with ARC support)
  • Computers and laptops with HDMI output

*Note: While it supports Ethernet, ensure both connected devices are designed to utilize this feature for network capabilities.*

Care:

  • Avoid tightly bending or kinking the cable.
  • Keep connectors clean and free from dust. If necessary, use a dry, lint-free cloth.
  • Ensure the cable is not subjected to excessive heat or moisture.
