When the receiving end device 120 receives the detection parameters, the received detection parameters are used as detection conditions with good protocols for detection.
In step S230, the source device 110 transmits detection data to the sink device 120 according to the agreed detection parameters. In one embodiment, the source device 110 may transmit detection data via a TMDS data channel in the HDMI cable 130.
Step S240, determining whether the receiving device 120 receives the message that the detection is successful.
In an embodiment, the steps S230 and S240 further include the following specific detecting steps:
(1) the source device 110 transmits the detection data of the detection sample Y0 to the sink device 120 for a detection data amount of X megabytes, and the sink device 120 verifies whether the content of the received detection data is incorrect. If the verification is correct, the sink device 120 notifies the source device 110 to continue transmitting the detection data;
(2) the source device 110 transmits the detection data of the detection sample Y1 to the sink device 120 for a detection data amount of X megabytes, and the sink device 120 verifies whether the content of the received detection data is incorrect. If the verification is correct, the sink device 120 notifies the source device 110 to continue transmitting the detection data; and
(3) the source device 110 transmits the detection data of the detection sample Y2 to the sink device 120 for a detection data amount of X megabytes, and the sink device 120 verifies whether the content of the received detection data is incorrect. If the verification is correct, the sink device 120 replies a message indicating that the source device 110 successfully detects the data.

When the source device 110 has received the detection success message returned by the sink device 120 and the detected video resolution has reached the highest video resolution that the sink device 120 can support, in step S260, the highest video resolution is displayed as the highest display parameter data available for the HDMI cable 130.
In step S270, when the source device 110 determines that the detected video resolution has not reached the highest video resolution that the sink device 120 can support, the detected video resolution is increased by one step, and the detection is started again in step S230.
Please refer to fig. 3, which is a flowchart illustrating steps of a detection method of the sink device 120 corresponding to the source device 110 in fig. 2 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
In step S310, the sink device 120 performs detection on the HDMI cable 130 according to the received detection parameter as a detection parameter in good agreement with the source device 110.
In step S320, the sink device 120 receives the detection data transmitted by the source device 110.
In step S330, the receiving end device 120 verifies whether the received detection data is correct according to the agreed detection parameters. If the received detection data conforms to the agreed detection data amount and detection sample, continuing to perform step S340; otherwise, the process continues to step S350.
In step S340, the receiving device 120 replies with a message that the source device 110 successfully detects.
In step S350, the sink device 120 replies to the source device 110 with a message of failed detection.
To summarize, the source device 110 starts detecting the HDMI cable 130 at the lowest video resolution that can be supported by the sink device 120, and ends the detection of the HDMI cable 130 when there is a problem in the HDMI cable 130, or when high-resolution detection data exceeding the transmission capacity that can be supported by the HDMI cable 130 is transmitted and received, or when all the video resolutions that can be supported by the sink devices have been detected by the detection process, so as to effectively know the highest video resolution that can be supported by the HDMI cable 130. In addition, the detection method provided by the invention can be compatible with the current HDMI standard, and can reduce the resource waste caused by idle HDMI cables or repeated purchase of HDMI cables.
