Hi all, I recently got the Cable matters DP to HDMI cables for my LG C3 triples setup. The Cable matters cable simply does not work at 120Hz, the screen goes black. Weirdly, it works with other 120Hz displays (tested it on a friend's CX). I verified that the TVs themselves are capable of 120Hz by connecting them directly to the single HDMI port on 7900XT. Deep colour is enabled. The cables are also at the latest firmware version. Anyone know what to do here?

Hi, I have the same problem with my C3 and Cable Matters. Were you able to figure out a solution?

I mean sure, they don't have to but it's still a crappy thing to do. Imagine if you couldn't open your docx file in libreoffice or google docs because Microsoft only wants you to use their own interpreter i.e. Office. It's not like DTS or Auro are stealing Dolby's tech. Rather, they are taking the existing audio codec and running it their own way. I am pretty sure you can overlay Dolby on DTS too. This just makes the battle for the dominant audio format a lot more awkward. And Dolby has put this under the false pretense that they want to curate and enhance the customer's experience. If that were true, why would they still be allowing Yamaha, Denon or any other receiver manufacturer to overlay their DSPs over their signal? The first party processing by these companies is known to be far worse than that of DTS, Auro, etc.

Not sure if this has been posted before. Apparently, Dolby intends to restrict 3rd party upmixing on audio.Which means that you would not be able to take Dolby audio codecs and run it with a DTS or Auro mixer, basically monopolizing audio formats Here's an excellent detailed article on it by audioholics along with a video discussion. https://www.audioholics.com/audio-technologies/dolby-non-native-upmixing-atmos This is taking away choices from the consumer while trying to sabotage the lesser known DTS and Auro formats. So if you have set up your home audio system for Auro3D (which requires a different layout from Dolby Atmos), you won't be able to experience a lot of content in 3D surround.
