The appliance that elicits anger and frustrated at it’s mere sight. The treacherous device that never worked right.

    The screen sometimes goes black for a second or two randomly.

    replacing your HDMI cable

    I think you’re onto something. I have two HP cube shaped docks on my closet now waiting on a return box. The third is holding, but only because there’s also a reg key for windows that will lose compression on the HDMI and make it not resynch so often.

    I still get the blinks, but they’re daily instead of hourly. I can dig it out if it’s valuable and the cables are good.

    I’m also using a steetek/PWay/etc 2x2 HDMI KVM switcher downstream of that dock, so I can switch between two contract desktops for my k,v and m as the day cleaves to night.
