OK, don't buy this unless you want to keep jumping up to make the readjust and set the cable 'just so' in order to keep the flow and the visual without static or fading out completely. Upon close inspection, you can notice that the covering of the wires is beginning to bulge and separate from the inside. It was a nightmare of a cable from the beginning and only keeps getting worse. Only reason I didn't return it right away was because there was special event and no time to return it, then just got busy. As time went on, the stability of the connection grew less and less. At this point, I plug it in and pray, don't buy it. Worth going to APPLE and spending the extra 2000 yen or so. I"ve had it less than a year, and it is pure piece of cheap garbage. From the beginning, there was NEVER a stable connection.
