Why all HDMI cables are the same, part 2. A few months ago, I wrote the provocatively titled " Why all HDMI cables are the same .
" There was a ruckus. Which I expected. But the post also generated some great questions. Which I hadn't. So let's take a look at some of the more common and persisting questions from my article, and flush some more of the myths surrounding the decidedly-not-magic HDMI down the drain.

LAVFSplitter is a multi-format media splitter that uses libavformat (the demuxing library from ffmpeg) to demux all sorts of media files. The project has been growing in my mind for quite a while, until i found out that Ti-BEN from the XBMC DSPlayer team was working on this as well, so we joined forces and developed the first prototype together. Since then some time passed, and this is the third design that came out of our combined efforts. At this point i would like to thank Ti-BEN for his contributions.
