Audio/Video gurus - TV Mounting question - GoFuckYourself.com

I need to mount my tv on the wall and want to run everything into an audio/video closet I have about 30' away.

Is there any good wireless hdmi devices out that are reasonably priced or should I just run a HDMI through the ceiling into a hdmi capable receiver and use rf to control everything? Btw, I'd be running hd-dvr, ps3, xbox, and a wii.

Tired of seeing my tv sit on a stand with cables hidden but shoved behind it. Plus once the baby starts crawling, I'd rather not have her near the tv.

wireless and hdmi do not go together. Don't even waste your time looking. Running wires is always best.

Definitely run cables. I'm running a 50 foot HDMI cable for the system in my bedroom. Up the wall, across the ceiling and down the wall to the TV. Installed it in the walls back in 2005 and haven't had any problems with it.

Damn. Was hoping I didn't have to tear the ceilings and walls apart.
