i need help... want to set up a relatively high end 4k HDR projector home theater system.. the distance between the walls in the lounge is 17 feet... which projector and screen would you recommend+ media player (i will use this projector for gaming, movies, tv shows, everyday tv use)
Majestechs planning on getting the LG HU80KA ( thoughts ?) which can pair with sound bars via Bluetooth- would you recommend a sound bar or a surround sound system ? And what size screen would you recommend ? The distance from wall to wall in my lounge is 17.9 feet I’m confused between 120, 135, and 150 inches framed screen
I only wish I had seen this incredible video before I embarked on my 4k projector setup, reading countless complex articles and mostly trial-and-error! Thanks immensely !
Good explanations! Clear and concise. Loved this. I already knew this stuff but my wife was confused, so I just popped your video on for her and she was able to get it all... now on to convincing her why we NEED this stuff haha
BEWARE!!! 95% of sellers are advertising v2.0 HDMI cables and only selling v1.4 Cables!! They are both "High Speed" cables, but the v1.4 is only capable of speeds up to 10.2Gbps, whereas the v2.0 is capable of speeds up to 18Gbps!! Even the Amazon Basics v2.0 HDMI cables are being wrongly advertised.... I literally couldn't believe my eyes because a large company like Amazon should really get it's facts right!!!
KnuKonceptz is a reputable brand. Would this HDMI cable be true v2.0? www.knukonceptz.com/home-theater/dvi-hdmi-cables/sp/krystal-hdmi-20-certified-high-speed-hdmi-cable-with-ethernet-2-feet/
@@ArnoldGaming Hi, these cables seem a bit dodgy to be honest. The seller is first saying these cables are HDMI 2.0 compliant and is also saying they perform to 18Gbps speeds, but then lower down they are also saying the quality of the picture possible does not meet HDMI 2.0 18Gbps standards..... so it's unclear whether the seller of these cables just does not understand their own product... in which case I would avoid buying from them, or perhaps they are mis selling lower performance cables disguised as higher performance cables... in which case I would also avoid. Also this website they are selling on clearly says it is "Not Secure".... ok I would avoid buying these.
@@hdmi4khdr60hz4 Hmm that may be possible. But since I am in car audio knukonceptz is a reputable brand as they sell high quality RCA cables and speaker wire cables that are copper OFC but yea the HDMI seems a bit sketchy
I never like or subscribe to videos, they never seem concise enough to warrant it. You speak clearly, not too fast or slow, use appropriate imagery to describe everything well and are friendly in your demeanor which makes the confusion less daunting all without being needlessly comedic as other content creators try to do. All top info, no waffle and well packaged. Definitely warrants a like and subscribe. I look forward to watching your other content as this has really helped me in a few short minutes. Well done.
Glad I stumbled upon your channel. I've been researching 4k TVs like crazy. So much great info. I didn't know what HDCP 2.2 meant, lucky for me I bought a receiver with that spec.
Your content is fantastic. Straight, clear and to the point. I have seen a bunch of videos on UA-cam where people rumble on an on, you instead cover the subject matter and explain what you set out to cover in each video. Subscribed.
....and you also need bandwidth over your internet connection if you intend to stream anything 4k. If you have a hard time streaming just normal HD content (lots of buffering) then you are screwed as far as streaming 4k goes. It is just another way to suck more money from you. New cables, new TV, new reciever, new formats. and fast internet.
I'm on the 10 year cycle. I'm fortunate I waited long enough to buy a 4k tv with HDR 10+. If I waited a little longer, I could probably get one with Dolby Vision HDR and ATSC 3.0 compatible. But these tech companies know how to play the game better than we do. At this point, I would say a 20 year cycle is best for buying new tv's in this new age.
@ 3:08, I learned this the hard way. In October, I bought my first 4K TV, which is a TCL 55p605 Of course, it has HDR. I bought some, cheap, WalMart-exclusive HDMI cables, called Blackweb. They were, like $12+. They WERE high-speed, 2.0 4K cables. Everything was fine, watching 4K content, UNTIL I bought an actual 4K Blu Ray player. The display showed good, but very dim. Also, when playing my PS4 Pro in HDR, the picture was bright, but the quality seemed, slightly grainy. I was puzzled. One day, I was searching on Best Buy's website, just browsing 4K movies. I saw some HDMI cables by Audioquest. I saw the cables were high in price. However, I saw on the top of the cable, 4+HDR. Saw many great ratings. I decided to buy one. I used it, when watching my 4K Blu-Ray player and noticed the display, was much brighter, clearer and had better sound. That made me realize, if you have a 4K TV with HDR, which many do not, you must have a 4K cable that SUPPORTS HDR.
What about viewing 4k video files from a USB hard drive that's connected to the 4k player and 4k tv? Will this allow watching HDCP content on earlier 4k TVs?
Well done Mr. Majestic, thank you. My only add is the fact some of the older 4K capable TV's may have a HDCP 2.2 input but it is not labeled. For my Samsung it was HDMI IN 3 (MHL). The others, HDMI IN 1 (STB), HDMI IN 2 (DVI), and HDMI 4 (ARC) were incompatible. This fact was hidden deep in the Owners Manual.
Thanks for a very well done presentation on the topic. Even as a very technical guy, this was just not an area where I had training or expertise so, even 6 years on, your video is a great way to get basic understanding of what all these acronyms mean and how they apply in our entertainment systems.
I just purchased the Samsung UBD-M8500. You also made a awesome video the video do make a lot of sense a lot of people think they are watching true 4K it shows good but it's not true 4K keep up the good work for 2018 ONE LOVE
I purchased the ibirdie 4k hdr10 support cable on Amazon and I'm very happy with it. Even though HDMI cables may not be a huge change in my personal opinion they can offer a much crisp picture and offer great speed to the tv. I sleep Happy knowing I got my cable for $16 with positive reviews
I first learned about HDCP when I bought a projector and the HD-DVD add on for the Xbox 360. My first projector was an older Dell, and I had to buy a DVI to HDMI adapter, which was not compatible with playing HD-DVD's due to HDCP. I had to use component cables, which had no dependency on HDCP, to watch 1080P movies on my 360.
Majestechs, Your videos are strait to the point , clear and concise - exactly what a guy like me wants. Keep the great and informative videos coming. We NEED you to help us keep up to date on the constant changes in video, audio and all the technology that links (or doesn’t link) everything together. I also love your recommendations on complete system setups at different price points. My dream system would be a professionally done (by you) TV room - unlimited budget. My more realistic dream system (and wife 𝘼𝙥𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙙) would be a 65-75in 4K TV that supports all the latest tech and variations (ARC, Atmos, Dolby X, HDPC2, etc..), outstanding audio with ceiling mounted speakers and something to tie everything together to make it easy to use everyday by everybody......I watching all your videos for that expert advice and education.
Hi +majestechs I have a 2016 4K Samsung TV and a Samsung 2.0 soundbar which supports Dolby digital. It does not support 4K passthrough, so my question is to get 4K picture from a 4K Blu Ray player, do I need to upgrade or do I just feed the audio to optical? Will I still get a 4K picture through this method? Thanks
Things like these are so complex now a days so I just learn to just watch and play games at the best of my knowledge, plug and play. If it's 4k HDR then that's what it is to me, as long as it looks good in my eyes I'm satisfied. What is this world coming to if u have to by special HDMI cables just to watch and play your games properly
How about some links to some 3 or 6 foot high speed hdmi cables that you would recommend and aren't too expensive. Im about to buy the Samsung Q9fn and have no idea which cables are the best for that TV. Much appreciated.
What about the variations within a line of 4K. I'm leaning toward the Samsung QLED because of the price points vs the Sony OLED. When I looked at the two of them, I could not discern a difference. However within the Samsung lineup, they have all sorts of different HDR engine to run the content. Thanks for helping out us poor mortals that have to wade thru all this 4K techno stuff.
Ok so to play 4k videos streaming from UA-cam for example. Both my T.V and PC (What I use to watch youtube) Must support 4K and I need a HDMI 2.0 cable or better?
Is there a top 5 4k HDMI cables that you would recommend. My HDMI cables go though the wall and its a pain to talk them out. What im asking is whats the best quality so I dont have to repeat this process every time a better wire come out. Thank you
You might want to talk about setting the receivers to pass thru on the hdmi out. For example my Denon amp wants to upscale and correct even a 4k signal. This sometimes will mess with even active and fiber hdmi cables. You can buy a lot of good cables and it could something as stupid as adjusting the receiver to pass thru.
What happens when you buy latest hdcp 2.2 tv and those F** uny people introduce hdcp 2.3 and Netflix and others will not support older format? Netflix now states on HDCP 2.2 is supported. Is that even legal what they doing?
We the consumers need to try and pressure the companies to ensure backwards compatibility with all these new tech formats/protocols etc. The companies will keep milking us otherwise.
procekim My best response to u is just be happy with what u have. U can never buy everything and theres always something new every couple of months and every year. I still have one of the first vizio 4k tv's with no hdr and the picture while not the best like these newer tv's, still looks great and im satisfied. I'm thinking about upgrading to an hdr set for now but other than that I'm cool with what i have.
Well done and thanks. Have you did any videos on the use of HDMI arc with computers connected to T.V.'s used as monitors? I have a M.S.I. GeForce 1060 6 gig. video card and I use my Samsung 4k T.V. as my monitor. Will my video card support HDMI arc? My T.V. does as well as my sound bar. At present I am using a toslink cable and the HDMI for my card runs to my T.V.. Thanks for any answer. I can not find a answer anywhere on the net.
Hello, what brand of HDMI cables do you recommend for 4k? Best bang for the buck cables and best overall as well? If you can give me a couple options I'd appreciate it. Thank you and your videos are great!
Can you please explain how to hook up a VCR, Samsung Blu Ray player, and a Spectrum cable box to a Samsung Smart TV that is limited on RCA cable jacks (5)? TV does have HDMI connection jacks and a coaxial connection . Thank you in advance.
How can I find out if my 4K TV is HDMI 2.0 & HDCP 2.2 compatible?, I'm getting nothing from the manual. Another question... I'm looking to get a new 4K Blu-Ray player and this unheard of "Nakamichi 7.1PRO DTS-X" home theatre system on Amazon.(according to the reviews, it's top notch) My question is... If I was to connect the new BR player directly to the sound bar regardless of the TV being HDCP 2.2 or not, will the sound quality still be DTS-X? Awesome video by the way, very informative.
Thanks man I just found that you can find a fiber DisplayPort cable too on amazon you should give a link. Been having a problem with long DisplayPort cables
Nice, clear video! Can you help a brother out with setting up my modest home theater? Sony XBR55x930e, Yamaha Rxa 1070, Sony ubp-x800 4k player, Marantz DV 7600 DVD/CD/SACD. Fios for tv watching and a Logitech Harmony Ultimate One that I use only to turn on all of the aforementioned gear to watch a dvd or Blu Ray. Is “Arc” a necessity and why? Can I just plug my equipment into my receiver and plug my receiver into the “Arc” input of my Sony and be done? When I want to watch tv through my receiver using an optical and have the Fios on input 3 of my tv and have no issues?
Great video thanks. Maybe you can help me out. I want to get rid of the old and in with the new. I'm thinking ps4 pro. 4k TV. Receiver and floor speakers a center speaker and bass bottom. How do I match this all up with a $1500 budget?
Quicky but a goodie for sure. Thanks for all the very complex information. I was able to follow you on everything you said albeit with some notes I had prepared in advance. Very well presented. Too bad they don't have salesmen like you in places like Best Buy. Maybe that's why some electronic stores are no longer in business.
Thanks for quality information Chris. Had a doubt though. If my soundbar setup supports Dolby Atmos while my TV does not have Dolby Atmos in it. And I connect the soundbar to TV via HDMI eARC (supported on both of them). Will I be able to experience true atmos? Thanks
We just bought a 4k TV with fire tv built in to watch while on the treadmill. We are not hooking up to cable just using the fire tv apps. I know I can't achieve 4k over wifi. Our home has google fiber gigabit internet. I have an apple airport extreme router near the treadmill. Will I achieve 4k if I connect a 20 foot cat 5 or 6 cable from the tv to that router? Thanks for the video's.
I thought that 4K was 4 times the resolution of HD as both the horizontal and vertical resolutions are doubled. Also another option for long distance HDMI is to use HDMI over cat5e/6 which is much cheaper than the alternatives.
I am using ,Yamaha RX-Z11 Receiver it's about 10 years old but sounding like new with no flaws. My question is am I missing out on different things while running a older receiver. Everything else is new , Sony UBP -X1000 , SAMSUNG 8 SERIES UHD TV , Along with the klipsch speakers and sub . I enjoy my Yamaha receiver and with all this technology moving so fast I hate the idea that I am missing out on different hook ups , and not receiving the best sound or picture because my receiver is out of date . Thanks for the videos , they are coming in very handy for me and I am sure many others . Great job thanks for your time and sharing the videos .
I have a question. If I install a HDMI Wall outlet. Would it affect the HDMI cables performance? It wouldn’t be a long distance problem. Since the tv and wall outlet are close together. Example. Xbox One S -HDMI-> Wall HDMI Outlet -HDMI-> Wall HDMI Outlet -HDMI-> 4K TV Assuming all these HDMI cables support 4K HDR Would this many HDMI cables affect the performance? If not, I’ll just drill a hole and use one cable to directly connect the devices through the wall.
Hi! Great video. Lots of really good information. I wonder why I am getting the hdcp error all of a sudden? Up until a few days ago everything was working fine up all of my devices were compliant with one another and then out of the clear blue sky this error start popping up???? I've tried putting it in different ports I've even tried switching out the cables with the cable from another that I have been using on another device in another room and even switched out two rokus; nothing's working. What do I do?
Hi thanks for your video. I have trying to solve my issue the past days but no success, hoping you can help me. I wanted to use my second laptop as wireless screen for my work laptop. Device is discoverable wirelessly but I have an error saying "Protected Content Can't be viewed on this Device". Both laptops have miracast available, with HDCP. All display and network drivers updated. Thanks in advance for your help!
I press the info button on my control and it says its at 1920x1080 resolution and at 60hz how do i get it to 4k also would i need that connection to make it in 4k when I game? And yes it is a 4k tv
4K is actually 4 times the resolution of 1080p. Sorry. This is what happens when you shoot videos at 2am. :)
i need help... want to set up a relatively high end 4k HDR projector home theater system.. the distance between the walls in the lounge is 17 feet... which projector and screen would you recommend+ media player (i will use this projector for gaming, movies, tv shows, everyday tv use)
Sony vw385es. If that's too expensive then the Sony vw285es. I would recommend either the nvidia shield pro or Apple tv.
Majestechs is xbox one s Hdmi good enough to Stream in 4k/watch 4k UHD movies or do i need a better high Quality hdmi 2.1
Yes. it works fine
Majestechs planning on getting the LG HU80KA ( thoughts ?) which can pair with sound bars via Bluetooth- would you recommend a sound bar or a surround sound system ? And what size screen would you recommend ? The distance from wall to wall in my lounge is 17.9 feet I’m confused between 120, 135, and 150 inches framed screen
I only wish I had seen this incredible video before I embarked on my 4k projector setup, reading countless complex articles and mostly trial-and-error! Thanks immensely !

Hands down you've nailed the confusion in these whole 4K hdmi mess that you brother!
Make sure you have 4k TV, 4k Blue-ray DVD, 4k DVD player &, $4k 💵 to spend.
-PARADOX- I'm just getting this now 🙄

Hell, I still have film reels.
If I have a 4k hdr bluray disc but I have a 4k screen that doesn't have hdr ,will that bluray disk work ?
Excellent presentation. Not new info for me, but very useful for most viewers. Why would anyone give a thumbs down?
Will they work on ps4 on a acer monitor but my monitor doesn’t have HDR
wassup bro, my question is why the heck do you got only 10k subs , cause you deserve more!
We have to spread the word his channel is dope!
22k now, not bad!!

Hi
These formats are changing every year, but we by TVs once in 5 years. How can we keep up?
Niggas stealing it

At present I am using a toslink cable and the HDMI for my card runs to my T.V.. Thanks for any answer. I can not find a answer anywhere on the net.
How can I tell if my 4K TV and player are HDCP 2.2 and HDMI 2.0 compatible?
Read the manual
@@BadWolf507 lmao
So.. which hdmi cable you recommend that isn't expensive and has the hdr feature for sure
Then add a receiver! Currently upgrading my 7 year old home cinema and running into the up-chain connection issue.
Does HDCP 2.2 make it impossible to build a 4K home media server? Thanks for the great videos.
Hello, what brand of HDMI cables do you recommend for 4k? Best bang for the buck cables and best overall as well? If you can give me a couple options I'd appreciate it. Thank you and your videos are great!
Great video my man. Looking good on my Sony Z9D. Thanks for breaking it down for everybody
Can you please explain how to hook up a VCR, Samsung Blu Ray player, and a Spectrum cable box to a Samsung Smart TV that is limited on RCA cable jacks (5)? TV does have HDMI connection jacks and a coaxial connection . Thank you in advance.
How can I find out if my 4K TV is HDMI 2.0 & HDCP 2.2 compatible?, I'm getting nothing from the manual. Another question... I'm looking to get a new 4K Blu-Ray player and this unheard of "Nakamichi 7.1PRO DTS-X" home theatre system on Amazon.(according to the reviews, it's top notch) My question is... If I was to connect the new BR player directly to the sound bar regardless of the TV being HDCP 2.2 or not, will the sound quality still be DTS-X? Awesome video by the way, very informative.
Great lesson thanks 😊
Thanks man I just found that you can find a fiber DisplayPort cable too on amazon you should give a link. Been having a problem with long DisplayPort cables
Can i send 4k through coaxial RF cable
Hi thank you for the easy to understand content. Good job. However, I just curious that do I have to consider hdcp on buying hdmi cables?
Very informative and professionally presented. Thank you.
Nice, clear video! Can you help a brother out with setting up my modest home theater? Sony XBR55x930e, Yamaha Rxa 1070, Sony ubp-x800 4k player, Marantz DV 7600 DVD/CD/SACD. Fios for tv watching and a Logitech Harmony Ultimate One that I use only to turn on all of the aforementioned gear to watch a dvd or Blu Ray. Is “Arc” a necessity and why? Can I just plug my equipment into my receiver and plug my receiver into the “Arc” input of my Sony and be done? When I want to watch tv through my receiver using an optical and have the Fios on input 3 of my tv and have no issues?
So are basic HDMI cables capable of 1080p? Or only 720p?
Clear, precise and. easy to follow. Thanks majestechs. You're the man!!
How do you keep up with new tech ?
Great video thanks. Maybe you can help me out. I want to get rid of the old and in with the new. I'm thinking ps4 pro. 4k TV. Receiver and floor speakers a center speaker and bass bottom. How do I match this all up with a $1500 budget?
Great video. So if you have a base PS4, will it be upscaled to 4k?
Great video. New subscriber. Made complicated issues easy to understand.
Quicky but a goodie for sure. Thanks for all the very complex information. I was able to follow you on everything you said albeit with some notes I had prepared in advance. Very well presented. Too bad they don't have salesmen like you in places like Best Buy. Maybe that's why some electronic stores are no longer in business.
Can we use this one on simple led tv 4k HDR cable pls guide me
Great work man 💪👍
How to connect fire stick to get surround sound through avr?
Thanks for quality information Chris. Had a doubt though.
If my soundbar setup supports Dolby Atmos while my TV does not have Dolby Atmos in it. And I connect the soundbar to TV via HDMI eARC (supported on both of them). Will I be able to experience true atmos?
Thanks
We just bought a 4k TV with fire tv built in to watch while on the treadmill. We are not hooking up to cable just using the fire tv apps. I know I can't achieve 4k over wifi. Our home has google fiber gigabit internet. I have an apple airport extreme router near the treadmill. Will I achieve 4k if I connect a 20 foot cat 5 or 6 cable from the tv to that router? Thanks for the video's.
I thought that 4K was 4 times the resolution of HD as both the horizontal and vertical resolutions are doubled. Also another option for long distance HDMI is to use HDMI over cat5e/6 which is much cheaper than the alternatives.
Yes, 4k is 4 times Full-HD resolution. Full-HD is 1080x1920 and you double both horizontal and vertical pixels, so 4k is 4 times that 2160 x 3840.
I am using ,Yamaha RX-Z11 Receiver it's about 10 years old but sounding like new with no flaws. My question is am I missing out on different things while running a older receiver. Everything else is new , Sony UBP -X1000 , SAMSUNG 8 SERIES UHD TV , Along with the klipsch speakers and sub . I enjoy my Yamaha receiver and with all this technology moving so fast I hate the idea that I am missing out on different hook ups , and not receiving the best sound or picture because my receiver is out of date . Thanks for the videos , they are coming in very handy for me and I am sure many others . Great job thanks for your time and sharing the videos .
Dear , it’s possible TV HDMI ARC converter will get 5.1 surround on old Sony Hifi . Thanks
Very clear, no bs well done. 👍
Love your channel and videos, I've learned so much. Did I detect a Baltimore accent when you said "yewtube" and "blewray"? Just curious.
Just checked your about section, you are from Baltimore! Cool. Answered my own question.
Another GREAT video, and VERY informative! Keep it up, please!
I have a question. If I install a HDMI Wall outlet. Would it affect the HDMI cables performance? It wouldn’t be a long distance problem. Since the tv and wall outlet are close together.
Example.
Xbox One S -HDMI-> Wall HDMI Outlet -HDMI-> Wall HDMI Outlet -HDMI-> 4K TV
Assuming all these HDMI cables support 4K HDR
Would this many HDMI cables affect the performance?
If not, I’ll just drill a hole and use one cable to directly connect the devices through the wall.
Hi! Great video. Lots of really good information. I wonder why I am getting the hdcp error all of a sudden? Up until a few days ago everything was working fine up all of my devices were compliant with one another and then out of the clear blue sky this error start popping up???? I've tried putting it in different ports I've even tried switching out the cables with the cable from another that I have been using on another device in another room and even switched out two rokus; nothing's working. What do I do?
Keep uploading bro, your videos are so nice!
