Default HDMI stopped working - help

Well my HDMI was working fine. But since few days it does not anymore. Funny thing is I haven't installed any new firmware since I started using HDMI (there was no new firmware for me in Poland)
Now HDMI looks dead. Prime do not see HDMI cable when plugged in.

Did anyone of you have similar situation?

from my experience so far with the HDMI on the Prime is that sometimes it doesn't detect that you plugged it in at times, so yo have to keep unplugging it and replugging until you see the notice at the bottom that an HDMI cable has been inserted.

This ^^^

I also have to be sure to pause Music or start my game before I plug it in, or it won't work quite right.

I've been chopping this up to the $5 20ft cable, but I guess not...

I've also had this problem. I've tried plugging it in multiple times and it no longer detects my HDMI cable. I've tried turning the prime on and off, switching tv's but no dice. I might try to get a new cable to see if that's the problem and go from there.

also try just half plugging it in. If it's plugged in too far it doesn't work.
