so i have installed my screen, set up my speakers, tonight i install projector.....but i have a ?, i have a electrician coming to put in the outlet next to my projector mount and i was going to have him run the HDMI cable at the same time BUT i read that it could cause interference with them running side by side, i bought this HDMI cable from monoprice
HDMI Tin-Plated Copper CL2 Rated (for In-Wall Installation) Cable (24AWG) - 45ft (Gold Plated Connectors)

is this shielded enough to run side by side????

I think you will be fine, just have your electrician put one on either side of the joists or give them around 5-6 inches of space between them. Your HDMI cable is nothing more than a fat ethernet cable, and I have allot of that ran through my house with no issues where I have it running parallel with my in wall wiring. Like I said, just put a few inches of space between them and you should be fine.

As stated above you will be fine. HDMI is a balanced digital signal and is highly immune to residential levels of EMI/RFI interfierence. Plus all certified HDMI cables are overall shielded as well.

Have your electrician run conduit if the walls/ceiling are still open.

it will be tough, to run the wire we have to go up through a drop ceiling and run wires over a bathroom between joists, it would be touch to run pvc or something like that unless we use small 2.5' sections, unless we used plastic flexible tubing
