Title: You get what you pay for
Product review: I bought this cable in the hope to connect a Philips DVD player to a Samsung TV. Judging by the LOTR wide-screen DVD, my TV was unable to display a good picture: The black bars on top and bottom were green instead of black, the Philips setup menu orange instead of white, and there was so much pixel noise that the DNR could not cope with it. The sound is fine. The very same setup plays nicely over a component connection instead of HDMI. That sounds to me like bad wiring of the HDMI cable. UPDATE: I finally got a different HDMI cable, and that different cable works perfectly in the same setup and ports. Thus, I can not recommend this cable.
