Just wondering if anyone has this type of connection.

Will this workout ok

I will connect the NVR's HDMI out to one of the receivers HDMI in-channel and then back out to the TV.

Anyone see an issue here or should be ok?

Thanks.
 
in several times I connect the nvrs hdmi out to the receivers hdmi in tv and after a month the hdmi output in nvr is broken
 
That would be a disaster, theres lots of cables in the market with HDMI amplifying technologies to boost signals on cables longer than 10ft. I wonder if these electric currents maybe even in some types of receivers can have this negative side effect.

Redmere by mono is one.
 
That should be fine.

Whatever you do, don't fall for those expensive HDMI cables like the Monster ones and etc. HDMI is a digital signal so you either get a picture or you don't, unlike analog where noise can influence picture quality. For longer runs it is a different story but still.

Spot on it's amazing how many people fall for that, a cable that cost £2 doest the same as one that cost £70.
 
I've seen people pay more than a few hundred for a HDMI cable, I had a quick google search and found a US$1095 HDMI 3.3 cable from monster....

For that much it'd better come with a flux capacitor or something.

There is always a fool that will tell you they can see and hear the difference, and a laughing sales man.

It can make a difference for long distances. Especially longer than the specifications allowed.

But I'm walking about £10 vs £15... not £10 vs £100. Dixons/Currys/PC World are well-known culprits of this legal scam.
 
On long runs for sure, as 3v & 5v signals will suffer a volt drop on the skinny cables.

Best part about those listings are the customer reviews :laugh:
 
I bought a 25ft HDMI cable from ebay for like 5$ and it works great to my TV from my PC
I've had it almost a year now.
 
I would stay away from the cheap cheap HDMI cables myself, they use the thinnest copper clad aluminium wires and crappiest connectors.

A decent cheap cable is what you want to use, it should have the appropriate gauge wiring and shielding and decent connectors.

For super long runs you need good cable, just like anything else whether it be for power, radios, networks, cameras and the lot. In saying that who really needs a HDMI cable to be longer than say 2 metres. Sure there are cases where you might need 5m or so, but the people buying the really expensive cables for short runs expecting a better signal hahahaha send your money my way.

For stuff like transceivers/2 way radios better cable does make a HUGE difference, like comparing cheap RG-58 with LMR-400. Networking as well there can be differences, whether you'd notice probably not. EG Cat 6 cable has a plastic core that separates the pairs internally, and the connectors also separate the pairs to reduce crosstalk. But anyways, don't want to keep going on.

I just bought the 40 foot version of this cable. I hope it is suitable to use on my LTS NVR.

very long runs can have issues. It varies greatly by device yours might be just fine-test it before spending time running the cable. I have a 35 foot run (hdmi to dvi) in one location. Using an NVR I got no signal at all. With a lenovo laptop (running blue iris) I got video, but it was noisy. Using one of these cleared up the issue

Thanks Fenderman will do.
 
Hopefully redmere's amplifying technology, eliminates any issues. Pls update how it works out Rudy, I will do the same once everything is installed.
 
Another possibility for long runs is HDMI over Cat6 or 5e cables (please note NOT ethernet), it will support up to 1080p with 'UP TO' 50 metres, there's also a cheaper version that will do up to 30metres.

Not sure how good these are as I have never used them, but it is a possibility.

Just tried it out on my daughters Samsung down the hall and it works perfectly. Figured I better make sure before I went to the trouble to fish it through the basement to the family room! Looks just like it does on my computer but 55 inches of screen!
