HDMI cable problem

Combined with a Philips 42 PFL 7862 D (100Hz, 1080p) I had massive HDMI synchronization problems (no picture, no sound). The firmware was up to date. After consultation with Toshiba and Amazon (great service) to give me a replacement unit was supplied, which had the same symptoms, so I took the television as a source of error in inspection. Unacceptable was the collection and analysis of the product by Philips (approximately 10 days), so I replaced the included HDMI cable Toshiba against a superior with gold contacts and behold, since there are no more problems (1080p24 resolution). The picture and sound features of the player are very good, but it is incomprehensible to the unit be accompanied by a seemingly poor-quality cables, which is why I pull a point.
