So, I needed a longer HDMI cable for my ps4 pro (4 meters long) so I got a Amazon basics HDMI cable 2.0 in 7.5m  (I'll attach a image below)

But when I use it with my ps4 my tv screen flicks to black every few minutes for a few seconds, then displays the ps4 pro again, I thought the cable was faulty, so I bought a diffrent one, this time a kable direkt 2.0 in 4m (I'll attach a image below)

And again, the same thing happens 

 

When I use the included 2m cable that comes with the ps4 pro it works fine with no problems 

 

I really need a 4m or longer cable, what am I doing wrong

Get an active HDMI cabel. Those are made for longer cables distances.

Should not be needed for something as short as 4m.
