What is your adapter? you need to get an active mini display to HDMI adapter.

Yikes! That's a really long run for a 32 AWG adapter cable. I would definitely suspect the adapter, and possibly also the cable length. If you need to adapt a DP connector, use an active adapter and pair it with a 28 AWG or better HDMI cable. If you really need a long HDMI cable, consider 26 AWG or 24 AWG, and make sure it's not running past electrically noisy devices such as electrical transformers and power strips.

How long is your cable, and what gauge is the wire in it?
