i am not sure what makes this odd? i have done this a million times. patch it perfectly at splice point and there should be no issues whatsoever.
What makes it odd is using more than a hundred feet of cable to go twenty feet, and putting a splice into a 4K cabling setup. I've heard over and over that when you run CAT cables for HDMI, DO NOT terminate them in an RJ45 jack and then use a jumper to connect to the TV (or source), but instead run THAT cable ALL THE WAY to the TV or source. So... if adding a jack can mess up HD video, surely adding a splice right in the middle of more than a hundred feet of cable can cause a problem!
Please describe the details involved in "patch it perfectly." I'd definitely do my best. What do you know about that is perfecter than best?

ok... So maybe you could explain why you cant just put a C61 at the TV?
Because I didn't bother to look up what gear outputs 4K and I was focusing on the wrong thing: a video over wire solution.
Thanks, everybody!
