My set-up has just started giving my problems after a year of strong functionality and I am not sure what needs replacing to fix the issues.
Issue: HDMI signal from Tivo to TV is no longer found
Components:
TV: Samsung LNS4051D
Projector: Optoma HD65
HTPC: Radeon 4350
DVR: Tivo HD
HDMI switcher
Setup to TV: I have the Tivo and the HTPC on 3 ft HDMI to an automated HDMI switcher. The switcher then connects to the Samsung TV on a 15 ft. HDMI run.
Previously: This had run perfectly on all fronts.
Currently: The Samsung picks up the HDMI signal coming through the switcher perfectly, but does not pick up the Tivo signal anymore.
Troubleshooting tried: Hooking the Tivo to the Samsung straight to the 15 ft. HDMI run, works perfectly. However:
1) Trying different ports on switcher: No signal from Tivo
2) Trying different HDMI cables from Tivo to Switcher: No signal
3) Trying Tivo, through Switcher, to projector on a 15ft run, works fine.
Summary:
Tivo---3ft hdmi---switcher---15ft hdmi---tv = no signal
Tivo---15ft hdmi ---TV = signal
HTPC --3ft hdmi ---switcher---TV = signal
Tivo---3t hdmi---switcher---15ft hdmi---projector = signal
So basically, it all worked before, but now it is acting like there is insufficient signal strength to make the Tivo to TV connection through the switcher but I can't figure out where the signal loss is originating from as all the individual components and cables work in other setups.
Thoughts?
