Are my HDMI cables 1.3? - Blu-ray Forum

America's Team · 01-19-2008, 02:34 AM

Just wondering if there is a way to check HDMI cables to see if they are 1.3 compliant. Most of my cables were bought within the last year but I'm not sure if they are 1.3, is there a way visually to check and see if they are?

Other than the manufacturer telling you, plug them into a Blu-ray player that can bitstream DTS-MA, if it works then it is 1.3 compliant, if it doesn't then it isn't. Of course this is a vague way of telling since other 1.3 technologies exist in the 1.3 spec, which are not as easy to distinguish.
