I don't know if you're joking or not here, but yeah, that's a 200 bucks solution, so hardly support for "cheap HDMI cables are fine", and for the distances I needed to cover a working HDMI fiber cable was a fraction of the cost (and it doesn't need to be powered on both ends, either). If you're trying to wire a whole house (or a studio, which is what those are for), then sure. If you just need the one long cable for home use... well, yeah, that's the point of good cables. Still finicky and requires trial and error, but if you buy from a place that allows returns it's more cost effective and it'll do the job once you find the right mix of parts.
