HDMI question....

[H.Donald]

My DVD player has suddenly stopped outputting a signal to my television.
It had worked fine for months,then nothing....
The player still works using component cables,but a 'no signal' is what I get on the TV when switching back to HDMI.And I am sure it's the HDMI output on the DVD player,as I have put other components into the TV input and also switched cables.
So my question is,do HDMI outputs suddenly just go bad like this seems to have?

It's possible, but I'm almost more inclined to tell you to check the settings on the DVD player and see if there's something in the setup about HDMI vs Component...??

Maybe something (or someone) switched a setting to have it stop outputing through the HDMI port.

If not, I'd say that most likely the port went bad.

Check the cable connections too. HDMI connectors are pretty flimsy, and maybe it came loose on one end or the other.
