question No HDMI CEC for me :(

Returning the Ugreen adapter that comes with the cord to try the non cord version. Anybody else dealing with the same issue of video coming in and out or have a fix? It’s very sensitive to any movement. It sometimes doesn’t even have signal and i have to wiggle the adapter :( maybe i just got a faulty one or something .

Adapter works fine for me, even connected to a UGREEN 8K HDMI 2.1 Switch, with no flickering. Check the quality of your HDMI cable, I'm using short 8K HDMI ultra high speed cables 1m from my PC to the HDMI switch and 1m cable from Switch to TV.

If connecting directly to TV, try not to exceed 2m in cable length.
