    Is there a preferred HDMI cable for the Bolt? I'm using Amazon Basics and I have been experiencing the black flashes / screen blanks that people have been talking about for the past couple months or so.

    The Bolt COMES WITH an appropriate HDMI cable for 4K signals - if you want to be sure that your cable is not the problem, use the one that TiVo GIVES YOU.

    The Amazon basics cable works fine with the tivo bolt. It meets all requirements. I use them with mine to get different lengths of cable.

    I use Amazon Basics HDMI cables for several different devices and haven't had a dud cable or have had one fail yet, unlike some of the other cheap bulk cables you can buy on Amazon. Those are roughly a 50/50 proposition.

    Me neither. They are well made.
