Need VDMI that is suspiciously similar and compatible with HDMI standard.
They should stop using HDMI and switch to DisplayPort.
Display port to HDMI cables exist.
There are many applications where you don't need HDMI.
Can't you still grab the HDMI signal without such limitation?
Just don't connect it and hook whatever you want into an hdmi port
maybe they expect you to use mini-dp to hdmi/dp dongles you already have?
There are other digital options besides HDMI...
If only they had included HDMI2 or Displayport...
wow, hdmi really wants to die that badly ?
