Was initially tested with an HP 625 laptop. Connect no problem, perfect picture, no dropouts. Further tests were carried out with the Unitymedia HD recorder and PS3. Again, no problems noted. Only when my Poppstar Media Player I had Bildausetzer. But had based on other reviews (even cables from other manufacturers) have the premonition that in various devices in the Video Options something has to be changed (neither on the HP nor PS3 or HD recorder by the way I had to change something). Instead of 'HDMI Auto' I have the signal then converted to 720p (the projector also has 'only' 720p) and lo and behold, no more dropouts.
3D devices I have not, so can not advise. The cable is, I think, well made and can do what it is for me. Therefore, from my side 5 star and a buy recommendation.
