    Unfortunately most get royalties from HDMI, so won't endorse an alternative.

        Welcome to the world my guy. Little old me can't change it, but I can express my desire for it. You will see a lot of people doing the exact same thing across many many topics, luckily the port on the back of a TV is hardly an important issue for me to take the time to campaign further.

      I thought they have to license the usage of HDMI so pay royalties to the HDMI foundation …

        Who do you think setup and owns the HDMI foundation?

      How much royalties do they get per sold item? I’m happy to pay the difference.

        i thought it was for Digital Rights Management so that you can’t record copyright stuff in pure quality?

        I'm not sure the exact prices, probably varies with volume of products sold.
