[...] Umweg, daß evtl. das Ändern von EDID Einstellungen etwas bringen könnte bin ich schließlich auf hdmiOn gestoßen, eine kleine Applikation, die als einzige meine Probleme lösen [...]

Thank you, I linked up an old xp to my Vizio HDTV, hdmi of course went off when switching between hdmi inputs. Installed this, set up hot key, installed autohotkey, wrote script to run hockey from wireless mouse, all works fine. I know i could run program direct but hotkey was faster to set up. Don’t need keyboard and can do all from couch.

Brilliant! Thanks for this tool. I built an HTPC from older components, and this blank screen problem was driving me nuts…

Thanks for this little program. I used it on my Car PC (Acer Aspire One / W7) to bring the screen back to life after waking from sleep. So not just for hdmi ;)
Great stuff :)

For me it was working well when I had Vista – as soon as I upgraded to Windows 7 it stopped working – any thoughts?

I had the “video goes blank when sources switched awaym then back with ATI card feeding Flat Screen TV via DVI => HDMI” problem too.

Your hdmiOn.exe works like a charm!

Thanks!

Try “windows key” + “P” and cycle with TAB.

Ok for me.

AMD & M$: shame on you.

Any chance this might resolve the same sort of issues under Linux, specifically Ubuntu/Mythbuntu? If so, any chance of a port?
