I can’t believe I came across your video until 2023. Your tips definitely will upgrade my pc setup. Loved it. Thanks
Thank you, good luck with it all!
Thanks man I have been thinking of how to connect my Pc to the living room, initially was thinking about using game streaming but the latency would be too high . Your video covered everything I need!
I'm glad it helped you, let me know how it goes!
I used some cheap 15m hdmi cable brand and kept getting terrible connection issues
I was hesitant at first but then invested in this RUI Hdmi cable and couldn’t believe how stable the connection was! Game changer!!
I combined the hdmi extender with a wireless hdmi transmitter to hook up to my portable projector it's actually a pretty nice setup
I'm planning to make a sim racing room away from my room which is where my pc is. Going to have to hook up an ultrawide monitor to the pc aswell as get usb hooked up for the racing wheel, keyboard and mouse. With the possibility of having my VR headset setup along side the racing rig. Going to be a big project for me and this video is super helpful in getting started with options for that. Great vid.
Great video l! It’s exactly what I was looking for.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the reply much appreciated. I have a LG C9 55 in my sitting room I would love to use my 3090 with it. I only recently found your tech channel and one thing I really like about it is that your topics are not the normal run of the mill topics most tech tubers seem to cover. Have a great day.
Thanks John, that's kind of you! This setup has made it really easy and enjoyable to play pc games in the living room, the only downside is having to go upstairs and turn the pc on every now and again 😂
@@AhAAn have you tried using "wake on lan" to allow you to turn on your pc wirelessly. I'm going to buy those hdmi cables anyways do you have an affiliates link?
Waking up the pc is not so much of an issue since moving the mouse will do that but when it's completely off I have to turn it on, I see a smart switcher in my future that will press buttons for me remotely 😂 check the description for links or visit the article ahaan.co.uk/article/top_stories/3070-3080-3090-hdmi-2-1-gpu-into-the-living-room the links are at the end, TY
Going to try this setup after watching your video. No need get a switch if my gpu has two hdmi ports, right?
Do you switch the hdmi/usb outputs so your monitors aren't displaying while your playing downstairs. If so, how?
I was thinking about how I would do this the other day, exactly what I need. Thanks
Glad you found it useful ☺️
This can work with monitors too, right? I was thinking of doing something similar to this where I can have my PC in my bedroom where I can use it for fun, and have a monitor/keyboard/mouse in another room where I can work from there. I was considering buying another PC so I can somehow remote control the main one when I need to work. Good thing this showed up in the search results!
Can you explain me Ezcoo USB extender in detail.
How to Setup?
Why are you using it?
Great video!
Thanks!
Does g sync and hdr work correctly with this setup. As in can you achieve 4k 120hz HDR 12bit colour with G SYNC? Thanks
Yes it all works perfectly, see 2:09 where I show the HDMI diagnostics - 4k 120 HDR 12 bit with G-sync
What about 4k@144Hz? Does this also work?
Hey, great video, really got me to push on with such a task myself, im just more interested in how the USB thing works / is that the best way? so what youre saying is if i want to use a wireless keybourd and mouse, which i do, the on bourd wireless coneectivity on the motherbourd wont work that far? through walls/ its best to exend a usb dongle to be in the same room as the TV, and that wil transmit the inputs to from a dongle to the pc hardwired? Anyway, cheers from down under
It depends how far you are, I definitely needed to extend my USBs. I would try it without first and see how it goes. Good luck!
Great video
Thanks!
Hey mate great video. I got myself a Ruipro 8k 20m HDMI 2.1 cable after watching this video. I've been testing the cable on my LG CX for the last couple of days and haven't had any issues so far ( I have the "C" variant). Are you also using the 20m cable? Would there be less latency if I was to use the 15m cable for example? Also what is the best way you've found to run games on your LG TV? I'm having issues constantly running back and forth trying to get the games to run on my LG CX as a secondary display. Can you please walk me through what is the most seamless way to achieve this couch gaming experience.
Do you for example, run steam big picture mode on your primary display and then send the image to display 2 (LG CX)? I've been using an Xbox wireless controller and I've noticed some delay/drop outs since the pc is in another room. Thinking I might also need to get the USb extender to solve my issues.
Please just give me a quick run down of how you get everything up and running.
cheers
Hey, glad you found the video useful! I would say the usb extender is a must. I have an Ethernet cable going from my office to the living room. The usb extender has two boxes, one for the pc end and one for the TV end, the Ethernet cable plugs into both boxes and a USB cable goes from one box into the pc. The other end has an Xbox controller wireless adapter and 3 other spare ports for a wireless mouse. This is a very reliable way to have low latency, it's just like having the pc in the living room. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any more questions.
Hello! Like your setup man! Do you think this will work with a 3 Monitor setup? I want to have my computer in the basement but play in the second floor with 3 Screens and also supporting keyboard, mouse and headsett. Let me know, thanks!
Exactly I wonder how this will work when you have multiple monitors at your pc.???😮
We need a standardized system to able to connect the PC on multiple TV's and controllers in different rooms.
Like a multi connector without compromising parts..
I guess houses of today are not designed to have a PC hub system for the entire house..
Which software did you use for HDMI Diagnostics? THX!
You can check HDMI diagnostics by going into settings, progammes, then hover over progamme tuner and press 11111.
Can the pc be turned on in the room with tv or do you always have to turn it on in the room where pc is located?
Good question, if the PC is off I have to manually switch it on but I usually keep my pc asleep so I just have to press a key on my keyboard and we're in business!!
How do you switch the output from your pc monitor to the tv? Do you have to go upstairs and switch the cables around on the back of your pc every time you want to do this? It'd be great if you could do that remotely as well..
Good question, I use a splitter on my monitor amzn.to/3ttB8Fd - I turn my monitor off by pressing the switch, my pc is programmed to use the HDMI as the main display if the monitor is off.
@@AhAAn nice! Now you just need one that you can control from the couch 🤠
You could always keep both plugged in and then cycle through display projection setups with windows+P
Or if you have a keyboard and mouse with macro support, create a macro for both situations
How is that setup working for you since you made the video ? No issues with the computer or tv ? 🤔
Still perfect, I just upgraded to a 77G2 and it all works flawlessly including GSYNC!
Thank you so much for this video! How fragile is the cable? Suppose I wanna live outside of the wall, is it going to break if one walk on it by mistake?
Thanks for watching - I definitely do not recommend leaving it draping on the floor without protection where it can be stepped on for too long. The cable can be damaged quite easily because of the fibre optic internals, for such an expensive cable, don't risk it.
Maybe use some kind of conduit or cable cover?
Thanks, I am not sure that I'll manage to pass it in the wall, due to the small size of the channels. I am considering to plug/unplug it every time, it is not too much work, I just hope the cable do not break in the process.
@@CRM82 tbf, before I installed the cable in the walls I was doing exactly that - the plug is fairly big and sturdy, as long as you unplug it by pulling out by the plug and not the cable, it should be fine - plus, if you have an issue with the cable after doing this for a while, Ruipro will replace it - the lifetime guarantee is very good!
Thank you again, I'll do that!
Let me know how it goes!
Duplicated this in my house works great. However I was wondering what you do if you want to disconnect the hdmi cable from the pc. I’m worried plugging and unplugging the hdmi could damage something. Thanks
I wouldn't keep disconnecting it, I currently use a KVM switch at the pc end which disconnects/reconnects my monitor when I press it. In windows I have it setup that if my monitor is disconnected then the TV is connected and vice versa. Otherwise I would just use Windows key + P to cycle through display modes. Hope that helps!
@@AhAAn yea that helps thank you. I’m worried about messing up the connection with a switch but sounds like it should be okay. Any recommendations on which switch?
@@AhAAnGlad I found this little tidbit. This is going to be the problem with most people. In the future you may want to describe how yo are separating the signal form your monitors and your TV by using a switch.
@MikeGameKillaMGK Thanks. I have an upcoming video with the newer version of the Ruipro HDMI, I'll make sure to include that info!
Hey, thank you! I actually am interested in doing something similar. I also need to bypass a distance of around 15-20 meters and am currently searching for a HDMI2.1 cable capable of sending 4k@60hz with HDR and later same resolution with 120hz when my wife and I decide to replace the TV.
I also need the USB stuff, but I figured a fiber optic 20m USB3.0 cable will get the job done, though I've read these don't support hubs.
If I get this cable, do you think my Sony 4k TV from 2018 will get the full 4k@60hz with HDR from my RTX3090 properly?
Hi Igor, thanks for watching - the Ruipro cable sounds like it will be perfect for your setup, it's more than capable of sending 4k@60 with HDR (dolby vision etc) and once you've upgraded your TV, it will work at 4k120 - not too sure about the Fibre USB cables, I know they're quite expensive whereas, the solution I used is fairly cheap and works great! let me know what you decide to do :)
Thanks for sharing this video. I have the LG C9 and have yet to find a cable that will give me a signal to my tv. using my rtx 3080 Hopefully this one works. Wish me luck.
You're in luck, I tested the cable with my LG C9 and it works perfectly, enjoy!
@@AhAAn Hi there, I finally got my cable and it works. However, when I have a game under high load, it instant response and hdr turn on and off. It make it virtually unplayable if happens so often. Did you experience this.?
Hi, glad to hear you've got it - it sounds like a faulty cable, I would reach out to ruipro and they'll send you a replacement and they don't require you to send back the old one. The support is really good!
@@AhAAn Will do, thank you
Bullet Train...far superior especially the AOC fiber. I did 2x so can play on either of my LG C3s, but the cables alone were $750/ea. And instead of doing direct attach usb extenders, I did usb over IP via Digi USBAnywhere +. I may upgrade to the ICRON Raven 3-2-1 but that is $1500/per and I need 2 and those are also direct attach just like the video. Luckily I already ran 8 pairs of Single Mode OS2 fiber to all my rooms, plus 4 Cat 8 ethernet to my IDF, so this means I could join any pair to reach any room via direct attach.
Is there any latency in the USB extenders?
Absolutely, Not! [Edited, misread your question the first time round]
Pretty cool. Did the USB ethernet converter add any latency?
Also FYI - the Xbox one "Wireless Display" application is fantastic and supports Xbox controllers. Just install the app on your Xbox and then you'll see it as a display option on Win 10. If you have wired internet connection on both sides it's almost as good as having the display connected direct like you've done.
No latency at all, it's like having the PC right there in front of me - the usb over ethernet is capable of 1gbps so latency is avoided
I haven't come across that but I will give it a go, I've used the shield to game stream from my pc although it is good, the latency is far too much
Ok was looking at this as well for my living room but £200 :O
Certainly is pricey, but once everything is set up and working, you will appreciate having latency-free full-qualiity PC gaming in your living room
I bought the 10m cable and have a LG B9 OLED and RTX 3060 Ti, both updated to latest software. I could not get 4k 120 hz to work. Even 4k 60hz 10 bit colour doesn't work. The screen just turns off and on every 10-15 seconds. I asked for a replacement for the "gen 3" version but that didn't work either. Same exact problem. Ruipro said they are working another version in Jan and will send one out to me again and test my exact setup. Anyone else have a similar problem??
I know the previous versions of the cable have had compatibility issues, one more of the downsides of pandemic is that compatibility testing is a lot harder to do. I had issues with the Gen3 cable but then I was sent the Gen3b which works perfectly with my 3090fe and W9 but milage may vary. I understand that since creating this video, Ruipro have created a GenC - which variant did they send you?
@@AhAAn how do you check which version the cable is?
@@mrnarason There should be a green tag on the cable like shown at 2:00
@@AhAAn It says RUIPRO 8K-GEN3B
@@mrnarason Yes that's the same variant as mine, it's a shame that it isn't working - it seems likely that it is damaged if 4k60 is not working, I've had fibre cables In the past that had these issues and it turned out to be wires within the cable have disconnected from the plug. The fibre cable still uses copper for low bandwidth transfers such as handshakes. It might be worth unscrewing the plugs and checking out if there's any disconnected wires.
That's alota work! Getting a gaming laptop is better In my opinion, less performance yes, but it's more convenient.
Well I went with that route and I wonder if its better.
A legion 5 with a 3070 is not that impressive for 4k 120hz (in my case I have a neo qled samsung).
This option even if its more work, it seems better IMO.
The one thing I would add, is virtualization on the computer, so the living room doesn't access your main windows installation. In that way you can have the living room PC accessing only games and movies
I mean its a lot of work setup at first but once youre done you dont have to worry about it again. Just turn it on and youre set. And while its relatively expensive, its still significantly cheaper than a laptop and even then the games wont run as well on laptop.
And future proof!
Can you talk about Google tv pls and how we can watch channels on it
Yes my friend, I have a few videos lined up for this topic 👍🏽
@@AhAAn thank u can't wait 💓
@@Benyoukai ✊🏽
Only found this video recently but you explained the exact setup I want. Getting under the floorboards is the real challenge in an older house.
Am I right in thinking overall you've only got 2 (maybe 3) cables running from the PC room to the living room:
- HDMI from PC to TV
- Ethernet from USB extender A to USB extender B
- Ethernet from PC to router
Glad you found it useful, my house is a new build so it was a little harder since the floorboards were glued down!
That's exactly the setup, 3 cables including the ethernet to the router/switch.
Did that USB extender help with pairing the controller via Bluetooth? How are you pairing the xbox controller to your PC?
Could you not just use a long USB cable and a USB hub??
signal deteriorates.
Yes, potentially but I already had loads of cat5e in place so I utilized that instead.
What if I wanted to use xbox controller in both rooms? Use bluetooth in one room and xbox wireless adapter in other room or just unplug the wireless adapter and bring it to whatever room im currently using it?
I currently use Bluetooth if I'm near the PC and the adapter when I'm by the TV, it's probably best to have two controllers, one in each room ready to be used. The other day I was using the TV with a controller connected to Bluetooth upstairs unknowingly, it was a pain to diagnose as I didn't realise what was causing the controller lag, doh!
@@AhAAn And if its 2 controllers can you use 2 adapters(one adapter in the pc and other adapter in the extender near the tv)? So both will have lower latency regardless of which room youre in?
Potentially but I haven't tested this!
I am in similar situation, but with this amount of money required to invest why not buy Xbox series S?
Because if you already have decent pc, the games will run and look better than on xbox series S and if you already own them on pc then you would have to buy them again on xbox unless youre using gamepass.
God it sucks thay these cables are so expensive. It hurts me to spend 100+ dollars on an hdmi cord.
I know, usually expensive cables make no difference but the tech in these cables are vital for long range use cases.
