Extension cables

I got some 4k HDMI extension cables that work on my TV but not on the Rift...

Rift works fine until I use the cable(s)

Sound comes thru no matter but not video?

Has this happened to anyone else?

It Depends. I had some amplified cables for 4k that didn't work that well. What are you using? Brand, type, etc. Also what length cables are we talking about?

See this thread. People have had success and failure with different cables (and sometimes different results with the same cable) so it's sort of a lottery.
