    so..just leave the cables hanging over the fireplace. Stop posting videos. just stop. Actually, stop do anything involving any kind of instruction whatsoever.

    Excellent video.  Very thorough, professional, full of all the absolute necessary details which so many other how-to videos skip for some reason.  Thank you MisterSoul.

    Found this interesting. This is what I want to do, but how do you hide the cables?

    Excess heat plus electronics equals bad times.

    Why didn't you drill holes put gaters than screws and washers over the mount to hold it better since its concrete tap cons should be used on the bottom and gaters on top right

    Your TV is in more danger of heat radiance close to and in front of a fireplace than it is being above one where a mantel exists.
    We all know heat rises but there are a few things to consider
    1) Gas only? Decorative Fireplace? Not an issue. 95% of heat is going up and out the chimney. The electronic unit is producing more heat than it is receiving.
    2) A good mantel will deflect the majority of the heat away from the unit.
    3) Do you actually use the fireplace, ever? My Mothers fireplace is decorative only thanks to an earthquake in 94. There is no chimney any longer. It was the perfect place to mount her TV and throw a fake box in that is only light bulbs.

    So how do you route the cables and power cord for a tv above a fireplace so that they are hidden?

    Love your name as a tribute to a great Neil Young song. Good instructional video. Looking for a follow-up on hiding the wires using a custom, hollow wood mantel. There are already a couple, but they lack in sufficient details for the newbies out there.

    i want to place a tv above the fireplace in my den. i live in a doublewide mobile home, so the stud issue seems a little complicated. i thought of screwing 2 x 4's into the studs, then mounting bracket onto that. also, any danger of damaging anything inside the chimney when i drill holes. its a wood burning fireplace, but as of yet we haven't used it.

    Great video! What's the brand and type of the TV mount that you used for this?

    my fireplace has drywall and not concrete above it. Should I assume that there is no concrete behind the drywall?
