Have you considered using HDMI? (I tried too but gave up cause I realized that it just wasn't worth it)

And if its too far for HDMI, HDMI over Ethernet exists and is cheaper than a 50' cable.

Pardon my lack of brain but what is a 50' cable?

I meant a very long HDMI cable, as once you get past a certain length they get stupid expensive, and heavy. I have seen improperly supported HDMI cables destroy their connector under the weight of the cable
