That's about true about for all competitors as most are made in China from start to finish. Blue Jeans is different; only connection and final assembly is done in China but everything else is made with US content.

Those cables I had were probably badly constructed ones which I was given so it would affect the result of the data transfer. Didn't want to hassle the risk of getting anymore cheap ones so I just gotten Blue Jeans HDMI since I already have been getting them years ago for their RF and component cables since they use Belden for those cables. Lifetime warranty on them and never had to send one back. Since I been to their facility, I have seen the workmanship and equipment they use putting their RF and Component together for me I waited and watch my own cables being made on the spot when I ordered.

A decent HDMI should work properly but I guess I had bad luck.
