I need to use every inch of my small room. A right-angle hdmi adaptor would let me move my pj a few inches further back. I saw a swiveling one for $25. It's kind of expensive for a little adaptor. Where is a good place to buy one? Thanks.

Was the one you found 90 degrees? Because I am also having a hard time finding a 90 degree male to female HDMI adapter. Most of the swivel ones seem to be 45 degree which doesn't help much.

So far the only thing I found in the U.S. that is 90 degrees M-F is this Calrad one. I don't have enough posts to post a URL, but if you google Calrad 35-718 they should come up as the first result.

There's a nicer little right angle adapter I found on a UK website called tvcables, but not in any U.S. stores.

Can adapters like these make your setup non-HDCP compliant?

Thanks for the info. I like it because it is a 6'' cable. This would make connecting another cable to it easier than if it was just a connector alone. I don't like the price though. Here is the link for the swiveling one. It is 90 degree.

And the Calrad:

I know, the price does seem ridiculous. The one from the U.K. place (tvcables net) is about $25 as well and it doesn't not swivel.

I already ordered the Calrad one, so we'll see what that thing looks like when it arrives.
