For whatever you are feeding to the HDMI port on your projection TV set,
make sure that its resolution setting is within the range of the set. If it
is out of range, the set will act as if there was no response.

I have also seen a failed HDMI port on some equipment react in a similar way
that you are describing. But, first investigate properly before coming to
any conclusions.

I have a JVC rear projection tv that I bought second hand a little over a
year ago. It works fine except for the HDMI input. When I plug it into my
cable box and switch to the digital input, it can't detect anything (and
says it's gonna turn off in 9 minutes if nothing is connected before then
). However, if I plug in my computer via a dvi/hdmi cable, the tv still
doesn't detect a connection, but the computer recognizes the tv for the
model number that it is. There is no setting in the tv that can affect the
input, from what I can find (and I went over all the menus multiple times).

Any ideas on what might be causing this? If it's an electrical problem, is
it worth my time to get an electronic technician to fix it?
