HDMI Not Working on T6i

[endurer1]

Greetings Team.  I have tried three different mini-HDMI to HDMI cables for my t6i and non are working to shoot teethered via Adobe Bridge

1. Disabled wi-fi function

2. Enabled HDMI Control

3. When I turn my camera on nothing is displayed on the screen so I believe it detected the HDMI cable

You shoot tethered with the USB cable, not HDMI. HDMI only mirrors the LCD.

HDMI cables carry a video signal.  You need to use the USB cable.  Do you have a copy of the full Instrucion Manual?

Thanks for reply team, I was misinterpreting a YouTube video and what you shared makes perfect sense.

thank you.

Also tried this is Light Room.  The camera simply isn't being detected.

Thanks.

Thanks for everything team.  I am shooting in tethered mode with no problem through Canon's Digital Photography software.  It appears there is a glitch with the t61 and Lightroom and Bridge.  Let me know if you guys don't have the issue.  Again, with the software downloaded from Canon's site I can tether shoot with zero issues.  Thanks for the quick replies on my message.
