It's not cheap because it's a digital signal as oppose to an analogue one.


I've never really understood this. Why does it matter i its an analogue signal to a digital one?

As long as the components you are using can handle up to the frequency HDMI signals flow at then there should not be that major a problem. Its just one or off.

Within a few years I can see these coming right down in price - they are more expensive due to being fairly rare still but as more things come out with them people will need them..

is there a 'switch box' so that i can have 2 HDMI and just flick a swith to change which one i use rather than keep unplugging them?
