wireless hdmi

[VJ]

Hello,

Any experiences here with wireless hdmi transmitter/receiver combinations?I'm thinking of getting one to connect to my projector. Both transmitter and receiver would therefore be in the same room.

Do they work? Specific brands to stay clear of? ...

Thanks!

Didn't you just spend all this time cabling the flat

Yes... When decorating things, I realized I might want to change some layout...

However, some work is not done properly (walls were not smoothed nicely, and it is now beginning to show, radiators were painted with wrong paint and should be sandblasted and redone, some parts of walls did not receive a second layer of paint, paint on some places is showing air bubbles, ...), and some things will have to be redone.
And the second fase is currently being planned: bathroom, kitchen, corridor (including removal of decorative wall stones, new floor and new doors to all the rooms, which will also imply painting again - but the current paintjob is not good anyway. So that all still leaves me a bit of playing room.

I was thinking I only have these options left:
- putting an cat6 cable in the fake ceiling and guide it to my patch panel. this would not require breaking the wall, but would allow the use of a hdmi over cat6 thing and sacrifice an ethernet port that is currently present. The distance would be about 30 meters, and the cable would pass a patch panel, so I guess I would need a high quality hdmi/cat converter; wireless once seem to be in the same pricerange.
- putting a tube in the wall to put an hdmi cable inside. The main problem here is where to fit it.
- putting a cat6 cable in the wall and use the hdmi over cat6 things

But while typing this, I realized that I have an alternative: the projector would hang below a fake ceiling, and there is one section (close to where my amplifier is), where there also is a fake wall. So I could just run an HDMI cable through there! The length would be about 10m. I would only have to make the hole in the fake wall to allow the hdmi cable to exit it.

So no need to go with the wireless thing!

Dunno about add on hardware, but my phones Samsung Galaxy SII (Epic 4g Touch), TV- Samsumg 46", Samsung Blueray and HP DV7 quad core all work via WiFi via DLNA to wirelessly stream HD content. Pretty cool to make a 1080p HD video with the phones and play them back on the TV... when playing back pRon, do not stream it to the TV while significant other is watching The Big Bang Theory (of course I did that on purpose hehe
