Hi

May appear a bit of a strange question but is there any harm in leaving a HDMI attached to my Loewe but sometimes without a device (eg a BluRay player) attached to the other end. I only occasionally use a BluRay player and want to move it from TV to TV , leaving an attached HDMI lead insitu if you get my drift??

Thanks

I can't see any problems.

Aber daran denken, daß Geräte nur im stromlosen Zustand verbunden werden sollten.

HDMI is explicitly specified to be hot-pluggable. It even has a dedicated pin to detect cable connect/disconnect, which would not make much sense if it was not allowed to do this when powered on.

Tja, ist wohl wie mit allem bei HDMI. Ich konnte hier schon Probleme produzieren wenn ich HDMI im eingeschalteten Zustand steckte.

Thanks for replies; I will ensure that I connect any devices to the HDMI lead before I switch them on :thumbsupcool:
