I’m vaguely lead to believe that HDMI’s backwards compat with DVI-D (ie why you can have a passive cable from DVI-D to HDMI) means you can use DVI-D signals and an “HDMI-cable compatible” connector. Not sure what this project does however, perhaps it interfaces with pre-made proprietary HDMI logic blocks.
huh? Were older HDMI ports open source?
That’s a good point. No, HDMI is not open source or very open source friendly. At least with current revisions.
