VGA to HDMI cable convert an analogue signal to a digital signal. It does this by connecting an audio cable to the adapter, where the video signal is fused with the audio also, so there is only one cable connecting to your HDTV.

Is it true that HDMI cables provide the best quality HD picture because the audio and video connections is in the same cable?

There is no truth in the statement. HDMI is an interface that carries digital audio and video signals. The image quality is dependent entirely on the quality and resolution of the signal that is delivered to the HDMI port by the video source. The HDMI connectors and cable carry that signal to the receiver but the cable does not change it in any way at all. DVI is compatible with HDMI other than the fact that there is no audio carried with the video signal. The video signal is identical to that carried by an HDMI cable and so this alone proves that statement to be false.


Is a PS3 HDMI or component?

HDMI gives a potentially higher signal quality than component video - but whether you will get higher picture quality depends on the quality of your input signal. Blu ray needs HDMI, but anything at 720i or lower will get by on component.

Your sony flat screen was working fine with your PS3 but now when you turn your PS3 on it says no signal What is wrong?

It is your TV that is saying no signal and not the PS3. When it happens to me it is when the TV is not switched to the correct source. For me this is when the HDTV is still at the PS3 source of HDMI or HDMI-3 plug and not the cable HDMI plug or HDMI-1. It can also happen when you purchase a cheap HDMI cable that stops working or when something is just disconnected from either end of the PS3 A/V or HDMI cable


A VGA-HDMI cord can plug into my monitor via the VGA side and the HDMI into the output device. Is the LCD monitor output still going to be analog which would make that cord useless?

When you use a VGA cable coming out of the monitor, the monitor is giving out an analog signal through the VGA connection. For the monitor to give out a digital signal, you need a DVI or HDMI cable. The VGA to HDMI cord just converts the analog signal into a digital signal so it's not completely useless, however the quality will not be as good as an HDMI to HDMI or DVI to DVI or HDMI to DVI


Will an HDMI cable hold it's signal over 10 yards?

For an HDMI cable 10 yards is the maximum supported length, so it should probably hold it's signal. It would help to buy good quality cable, just to make sure.

What is the max distance a HDTV signal go on a coaxial cable and which is the best cable to use?

Outside commercial facilities, raw HDTV signals do not travel on co-ax. In a production studio, an HD signal will travel up to 500 feet as an uncompressed full bandwidth HD signal. This signal format is not seen outside the studio. Once the signal has been prepared for broadcast, it is in a compressed format and carried to a transmitter, satellite base station or put onto a cable for distribution to homes. In the case of cable operators, the main trunks are normally fiber optic with the drops to each house either on co-ax or fiber. Whatever solution is chosen by the cable company, it is engineered to provide reliable service to each home using specific cables and connectors. Once the signal has been received by a cable, satellite or terrestrial receiver, it is output as an HDMI signal. There is virtually no equipment that will output HD in any other format. HDMI is a multiple twisted pair cable rather than co-ax and has a maximum length approaching 100 feet. In terms of the best HDMI cable to use, it is important to use a cable that has been tested and approved by the HDMI organization. If the cable passes that quality test, it will work as well as any other cable, regardless of cost or any other claim by cable manufacturers. If an HDMI cable works, it will deliver the signal without any corruption, so claims by manufacturers that they offer the "best quality" image are without substance. In essence, the cable either works or it doesn't.


What is the difference between 22awg and 28awg on HDMI cable?

HDMI cable is characterized by its performance rather than the lay up of the individual cables. The choice of a specific wire gauge makes no difference to the effectiveness of the cable. An approved and licensed HDMI cable will work flawlessly if it connected to licensed HDMI outputs and inputs. On the same note, expensive HDMI cables cannot deliver better quality images than cheap ones. The nature of HDMI signals means that the signal is either properly received by a television or not. There is no gradual loss of quality before the signal fails.
