HDMI Cable 1.3 or not? (1 Viewer)

[loadme]

found an hdmi cable


it says "certificate no. 3b17-10"
used google to figure it out. is it hdmi 1.3? older?


my tv says "never ever use lower than 1.3 it can cause dmg"
i think its because the LCD uses Deep color, which is supported since hdmi 1.3

and now:

found 2 matches..

Simplay Labs - Consumers
where it says
- Category 1 certified standard speed HDMI cable.
- Compatible with HDTV resolutions 720p, 1080i ,and 1080p


next here: (german source)
DELL HDMI/HDMI "HDCP" INTERFACE KABEL STYLE 20276 NEU bei eBay.de: Monitor- Projektor- TV-Kabel (endet 10.01.10 19:40:04 MEZ)
seller says:
- certified for hdmi 1.3
but seems he doenst know what he talks about since next he explains is:
"max resolution supported is 1080". (in fact hdmi 1.3 is scaleable up to 1440p)


can anyone give me a small hint, since i am new to this stuff


thanks

*edit:

both cable were found following the "certification no. 3b17-10" and other details printed on the cable

The cable spec has no changed in any of the HDMI revisions.

Personally i would not hesitate to use it.

there is a lot of rubish and mis-information as far as HDMI cables are concerned. A €100+ HDMI cable will not perform better than a €5 unbranded one.

Not certain that the 1.3 capable even refers to the hdmi cable, more likely the interface on the transmitting\receiving equipment, I know they have now introduced mini hdmi connections for camcorders etc, more info available at HDMI - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
