Dolby Vision-ready HDMI cables

[vkalia]

Hi guys -

So i seem to be having a problem with my AppleTV not sending 4K/Dolby Vision videos to my TV. It can send 1080/DV or it can send 4K/SD.

As far as I can tell, it seems to be the HDMI cables, but i just want to do a sanity check here. These are the cables I have:

https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B00GG59HU2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1

These are the cables I plan to replace them with:

https://www.amazon.in/UGREEN-Support-Dynamic-Compatible-Nintendo/dp/B08276QLHM/ref=sr_1_4?crid=282G1M20VVTVJ&keywords=Dolby+Vision+HDMI+cable&qid=1658490471&s=electronics&sprefix=dolby+vision+hdmi+cable%2Celectronics%2C203&sr=1-4

Am I correct in assuming that:
(a) the first set of cables dont have the bandwidth for 4K/DV?
(b) the new set of cables do?

Thanks!

I had the exact same problem, on further probing it was reveled that not all ports do Dolby Vision.

Try a different HDMI port on your TV, first. If it still doesn't work then get the UGreen cable. I have the same cable and can confirm that it plays well with Dolby Vision.

Good point - i just checked and no, it isnt the ports, either on the AVR or the TV. UGreen cables ordered and should get delivered day after tomorrow.

Thanks for the feedback!
