Hi everyone,
At the moment I've been trying to think of a way to get display from my PC in my room to the large TV out in the lounge room. I know it would be better to purchase another PC however I simply don't have the money to afford one at the moment. The distance from my PC to the TV (for cable length) is about 20 metres, maybe a tad over. I thought of doing wireless hdmi however this would seem problematic as the distance is so great. So it came down to using a very long HDMI cable, except, the internet has told me that for any distances over 50ft I would experience dropouts, sparkles and other strange things so I would need to use some other piece of hardware to boost the signal. Now, I know I'll need a 20m or 25m HDMI cable in order to do this, but I have no idea what sort of thing I would need to boost the signal, or where I would even think of purchasing this. Any insight onto this would be greatly appreciated!
P.S. Does the HDMI cable need to be special in order to work with a signal booster?
P.S.S. I live in Australia, so pretty please don't refer me to Newegg!
