Is this the issue you are having? I always assumed it was a difference in the DVI and HDMI standard that caused the delay.

nope, i don't notice any delay. like i said in my first post, during bright parts of a movie or HDTV show the picture from the monoprice cable looks great, even a bit better than the Rocketfish one. but when the screen is forced to show dark colors (sports host in a dark suit, etc) a very noticeable film grain is present and it has a strobe light effect, flashing quickly. very annoying to watch, and it doesn't happen with the rocketfish cable. this occurs regardless of whether it's my PS3 or HD-PVR hooked up
