    I would seriously look into something like the Chromecast dongle in that case.

    I'm not a big TV guy bit I have been considering buying something like a Pipo X9 which is a tablet computer TV box sans battery that can be used as a tablet / computer etc. And you can control the TV through touch commands on the tablet when you can't find the @#$% remote.

    I've had several locals attempt to replace the connector of an analog cable for my CCTV. Their "repair" job left me with crap video quality and the connector fell off the first time I touched the it. They had no crimp tool, no pliers......not even any d*mn electrical tape. They used a hammer to crimp the connector on. And these were guys that worked for a company that installed CCTV cameras. :meh:

    If it's hard to find someone that can handle this:

    (Note: Luckily the power cables for the cameras already had a connector attached!)

    I wouldn't even waste my time (or risk the functionality of my electronic equipment) trying finding someone that had the tools and knowledge to do this:

    I'd recommend anyone thinking of extending an HDMI cable learn how to do it and buy the appropriate tools themselves. I'd image a shop with the proper tools + the know-how is a very rare thing in the Philippines.

    Did you try the Octagon downtown near Steds? I had the same issue before and it was the only place I could find one but also think I just happened to get lucky at stock at that time. Don't think you'll find anywhere else in town but maybe you could try seeing if Algorithm on the highway can order one in.

    This is also what I have been considering as well as my computer sits on the opposite side of the living room as my TV and I'd like to be able to watch something like iflix on my tv.
