Hi Flavio,
Not entirely sure I understand your setup… but what may help would be knowing:
-
What firmware do you have installed?
-
What model Panasonic projector?
-
What model NILES CAT-5 Baluns are you using?
Let’s go
Firmware: last from WD original 1_02_21
My projector: panasonic pt-4000u

Niles full hd ballon HDMI TO CAT5 RECEIVER AND TRANSMITER

Thanks for the details. :)
On the face of it, it looks like everything should work. The Niles Baluns are HDCP compliant, as is the Panasonic projector.
Have you tried a hard / factory reset since updating your firmware?
-
Push the reset button on the side of the unit (un-bent paperclip works well). Unit will reset after 1 second.
-
Go to Settings > System Setting > Reset to Factory Defaults. Unit will reboot.
-
Once unit has rebooted, go to standby and unplug the power for 5-10 minutes.
It’s frustrating but firmware updates don’t seem to fully integrate until the above has been done, which can cause odd issues. Let us know if that helps.
I have a feeling that this will not work for you my friend. Not until WD will enable a forced output of selected resolution. If you can’t get it to work, get yourself a 1st gen WDTV, it will force output any selected resolution. I have both and only the Live version seem to be stuck on 480p. Good luck!!!

I doubt you’ll get help from WD, they used to have great support. But now, they won’t even try to correct such a simple simple problem. There is a thread in a modified fw, here:

Hopefully they can solve this problem.
Otherwise, consider an edid emulator, they are usually dvi, not hdmi, but will pass all resolutions. I might get one myself to solve this problem. They are around $100, which ■■■■■, but what options do we have.
Please fix this problem!

THIS WEEKEND I SOLVED
Hi, I fixed. One of my cable Cat5 had a pair changed.
It worked with my HDTV 1080i signal from brazil but does not work with others midias
Then i disconnect everything and reconnect testing each conection and i found a problem with the CAT5 connector, one side of the plug had a pair of the connector changed.
Thanks all
