I have heard that the issue with putting HDMI devices in series might also have to do with issues with the return channel that would tell the computer what resolutions it is capable of displaying and other complications from the hot plug capabilities

[@jenton93]

This is called edid. So between devices you need a edid hand shake so the more devices in line you put the more hops that needs to take. Some will emulate, some with have there own, and some will pass through.

[@KogaHarine]

@@jenton93 And depending on your setup some are built to split so one output shows 1080p at 60fps while the other output uses 4k at 60fps allowing you to scale to match a device. Had to do that to record through an elgato hd60s at different resolutions while outputting only at max resolution (mainly for 4K) to the tv through the splitter. Finding one that actually works for a good recording setup with varying resolutions being used is a huge pain in the ass. The one I found had to basically have a dip switch so you can adjust either side as needed.

Hey I'm pretty late so thought a new comment would go unnoticed. In chemical reactions, a series of reactions is only as fast as it's slowest step; as no matter how fast the other reactions complete, until the slowest one does, the reaction dosen't complete. I think (guessing) that a similar principle could apply when we daisy chained these devices, and the total input lag was the same as the slowest of the bunch.

[@TheGaggenau]

it depends on what technology of ethernet ones you use. HDbase-t ads a little bit of latency. the cheap copies of hdbase-t ads a lot of latency. expensive av over IP very little latency cheap hd264 compression or similar ads a lot of latency.

[@TheGaggenau]

@@emeraldbonsai no as a AV system engineer i use hdmi extension over ip all the time. It’s very good when a client already has the Ethernet infrastructure built and it’s not up to spec for 4K over hdbaseT. But essentially it’s a encoder and a decoder but it’s common to use it for extensions and/or as a matrix. The expensive systems use a low latency jpg2000 compression and some of the are used in esports

I'd like to see a windows vs linux vs macOS latency test!

Untested guess, but based on the knowledge of each of their kernels and how they behave for other real-time stuff like delays in audio processing, it would probably be something like this: 1- macOS (best, lowest latency OS and one of the reasons so many music producers and DJs use it, maybe a tie with 2nd) 2- Linux with a real time kernel (maybe a tie with 1st) 3- Normal Linux (with a normal kernel) 4- Windows (not a real-time OS at all, not by default at least) Just a guess tho, would love to see a video on it too

[@Stego27]

@ for gaming I guess it would also depend on directx compatibility layers etc

[@bernardo5758]

@ Real time OSs are not at all comparable to the others, they are called like that because some processes can just stop everything when an interrupt signal acts for example, making the latency on the range of microseconds, which is very important for robots, airplanes, satellites and thinks like that. Any kind of RTOS would trump macOS, Linux or Windows and programs written for one kind of OS are incompatible with the other without some heavy modification.

[@randommer52]

Really good idea, but the nvidia software they use must not work on Linux and MacOS, if I had to guess...

[@MattVickers]

I expected the receiver to be highest. It probably depends on what image processing functions you enable and what chip it uses for that

[@EposVox]

I guess this is a better title than the Floatplane video, as you're half-testing added render latency (w/ the capture cards in a single PC configuration) and half-testing pass-through latency with the sound bar. Your existing Leo Bodnar tester would provide far more accurate results actually testing added input latency for passthrough devices like the sound bar anyway.

Would've loved to see using a HDMI splitter into the devices. Maybe that would result in truly 0 latency?

[@Topside08]

electronically the capture cards with a pass through are basically the same thing as an HDMI splitter EDIT: *should be* the results with the 4k60 Pro suggest they can screw it up

[@randomgeocacher]

Agree. Especially if it was a really simple splitter that just forwarded the HDMI essential signals (clock and the three image channels) without any complex processing, I would just assume a few get a few ns in additional delay from the RTL logic. All these devices adding many ms delay clearly are doing something weird, that’s not some simple electrical thing or a few internal cycles in RTL logic. So my somewhat educated guess is that the most basic splitter with fewest features is most likely have the least delay. Output_a = Input, Output_b = input just should not add weird measurable delays. Linus idea about it being related to devices doing HDCP processing might be correct. Could also be something like a device wanting to buffer entire frames and never transmit a broken frame, that would add ~ 1 frame delay in processing.

[@AlexM-wt1pu]

@@Topside08 Yep. In theory anything with a passthrough should be exactly as if it were just a passive (dunno if possible to passively split HDMI) splitter. Thats why I think it would have been great to see a super simple one without any processing added in, it would be the 'fastest' way of getting the signal into the devices.

[@LRM12o8]

@@Topside08 Maybe the internal capture card uses some system resources that cause the lag?

[@danieljensen2626]

I think the problem is that HDMI involves two way communication. That's how your computer knows the resolution of whatever monitor you've plugged it into. HDMI doesn't support 3 way communication, so it just wouldn't work with a passive splitter. You need an active splitter that basically acts as a router to keep the communication coherent.

[@TSUTCLIFF]

Hi, the “handshake” issue you’re talking about is one that I’ve come across quite a few times, it’s an EDID mis-match, you can get a universal EDID “translator” for a fair price, it’s not a common issue, but it comes up a surprising amount in my line of work, it’s basically the way that a display device tells your source what its capabilities are, and when you pass through multiple devices it can get “left behind” of if they don’t all have one common way of communication then the entire system collapses, that’s why it can work fine with each item individually, but not all at once. This is a very simple explanation, but let’s say your screen and PC can both communicate using EDID protocols 1-10, and one of your pass through devices can communicate in protocols 1-5, and the other can communicate in protocols 6-10, both devices will work individually as there’s a common protocol from display to source, but if you try to use both the display communicates (via the first device) in a protocol that the second device can’t understand, so the EDID never makes it to the source and the source doesn’t know how to transmit, this normally results in a loss of signal, but sometimes can result in the communication being limited to early display types so your source will think it’s limited to old aspect ratios, or the wrong refresh rate, or lower resolutions.

Linux is boring. Less than 1% of gamers are interested in Linux.

Like the video. Hate the TV. I had nothing but issues with Visio. I worked for att uverse and most complaints I had were from Visio TVs. My step father has one and every time you want to change to a different HDMI input, you have turn off the TV after you select the input, and turn it back on with the device you want to use to be on. This process took about 1 minute (because it takes a while for the TV to shut off and turn back on) instead of a couple of seconds like most TV's. Cheap LG, Samsung, Sony, Sharp, and TLC (I used all these brands) never had the issues like I experienced with multiple Visio TV's.

It would be neat to test a variety of home theater receivers and see if there are any particularly good or bad models. I am honestly surprised that the Sony did so well considering Sony receivers are on the low end of AVRs.

So it's impossible to use a PC or console for anything but play a competitive game? I thought they could, well, play media and stuff too when not playing games.

Thank you LTT for changing the aspect ratio by a couple of pixels so that I don’t notice the notch on my iPhone 12 mini. Such a minor change but it makes viewing the videos so much nicer.

[@SilentFL]

Could you please test KVM switches as well? Considering getting one from Amazon so that I can use my gaming setup while WFH (with a work latptop), but I'm concerned about the impact it will have when I'm gaming. This is probably more relevant now days with COVID and WFH than ever before.

It's just the intro tag for one of the laptop videos. Not sure which one at a glance, but it may have been the recent one where they added thermal pads to the MacBook air and the bottom heated up a bunch.

Does the sound bar connect to the speakers via Bluetooth? I wonder if it adds artificial delay to the hdmi stream to sync the video and audio together?

I can see that the Northern Lights desk mat has been tested to withstand a television sitting on it. Will be very handy for when they come back in stock.

[@MrRom92DAW]

It would’ve been interesting to test out simple HDMI switches and splitters. Maybe if there’s a low (no?) latency splitter, the second output can go to any other necessary equipment, like a capture card or whatever

the final delay is the sum of all devices delay. hdcp doesn't add significant delay, as the key exchange is done on startup. it is a source of things not working properly though.

[@TheGaggenau]

an HDCP problem is usually when you can see the image for a couple of seconds when connecting the cable and then it goes black or green/purple. not getting any picture at all or if it's flickering it's often an issue with signal strength or edid. lowering the resolution and you get a stable image indicates that.

[@N7RiZe]

I love how video titles explain nothing on what you're about to watch nowadays.
