I don't know everything there is to know about this system. The first thing I would do is eliminate the splitters and see if the problems are corrected. Secondly, when I hooked mine up, my computer automatically reprogrammed it's format system to fit my TV, how I'm not sure. I do know that when I disconnected the cable from the TV, my computer text and resolutions were all messed up. I still haven't gotten them back to where they were. However, all that said, it worked fine when I first connected it and we were able to watch the DVD video from the computer play on the TV. You also might try to contact the manufactuer to see what they have to say. Hope this helps a little. I don't know everything there is to know about this system.

Every once in a while the TV seems to suddenly be out of sync. Not real often, but it does happen. I have a cable box hooked to it with an HDMI cable. Changing the channel, up one and back down for instance, syncs everything back up. I have to wonder if the audio or the video signal path inside the TV is the real problem. (All the motion processing, etc.) This by the way is using the TV audio. I don't recall it happening through home audio system but I'm not saying it hasn't either. Anyway I'm hoping a software update will fix this down the line.

You may find that only one digital video output is active at a time, due to copy protection laws. (I know this is true for digital sound, anyway.)If so, perhaps you can find an inexpensive device that will split the DVI so that one can go to the receiver and the other to the TV?

This isn't an answer, but clarifying the question, since I have the same problem. I expected two cables - a red and a white to go from L/R audio out on the TV to L/R audio in on the box. What I GOT with the unit was ONE cable, split into R/W (two plugs) on one end and with only ONE plug (black) on the other end. So how do we connect four ports with the three plugs? This has nothing to do with the power supply. Thanks!

No, the splitter does not work as it is addressed. I wasted my time and money on this and purchased a 50 foot hdmi cable that I now cannot use. I would look elsewhere to solve your splitter problem.

I tried multiple splitters and unfortunately none of them worked. I ended up getting a tv that had more than one HDMI inputs and used one optical output to my sound bar.

I'm not sure how it would work for you, I have old and new equipment I'm using together. The monitor 1 & 2 is for the monitors. I ran cable from the unit Monitor 1 to a splitter(?) and from the unit monitor 2 to the splitter then from the one side of the splitter ran cable to the DVR so i have 1 monitor in 1 room and the other monitor in another room. (You need long cable of course) but it works. Doing it this way, both monitors show the same view. My monitors are the flat screen tvs that have cable/hdmi/computer availability. They are both the cheapest brands, but work great. Hope this helps. I'm not sure how it would work for you, I have old and new equipment I'm using together. The monitor 1 & 2 is for the monitors.

ditto on the audio drop out. Turning the tv for just a second seems to fix it. It did the audio trick with both the rca cable and the hdmi cable.

Mine goes to a 3 way splitter, two TV's were within 6 feet of splitter and were good, the third was 30 feet of coax away from splitterand no signal was getting to that TV so I put a pre amp between splitter and that 30 feet of coax and then that TV worked perfectly

I wish I could help you. I'm only using the splitter to show the same image on 2 computer screens at the same time. No sound is being used. Joe

Fred - two pieces of advice for making this work 1) the two TV's should be the same resolution capability, eg, if one is a 720p and the other a 1080p they will both end up displaying 720p, if both are real "HD" TVs you are good 2) for the longer HDMI cable run don't scrimp and buy el cheapo cable, get a decent cable. You dont need to buy the super geek $100 cable but the budget $9.95 30 foot cable might not work well, go ahead and spend $20 or $25 on the cable itself

In theory, yes, as that is what powered HDMI splitters are supposed to do...take the original signal and amplify it so a clean signal gets to multiple devices. In practice there are sometimes problems when connecting to equipment that is several years old as they may not have implemented the later HDMI standards. For instance, I wanted to send HDMI to a new tv at the end of a 50 ft hdmi cable as well as a four year old 'smart tv' adjacent to the dish receiver. Both tvs would get the same channel although only one would be turned on. The splitter worked fine for the newer tv, but the older one would never have audio UNTIL power was cycled on the splitter. I tried several splitters .... all exhibited the same symptom. Apparently the older tv didn't have the same interface standards as the newer so I do not think ANY splitter would have worked as I intended. Bottom line is you just have to try it. Chances are it will work.

im sry didnt get to finish my response after i have the devices RCA cables split into my tv in the living room and the transmitter... then i have the receiverin my bedroom and i can use that device on both my tv in living room and tv in bedroom. Interference really not that bad. i Actually bought two sets and have only one receiver in my bedroom but two transmitters in living room connected to two devices and the one receiver in my room has 4 channels on it so i can switch between both devices WHICH ARENT EVEN IN THE ROOM, pretty awesome just plan your setup well because this all may have sounded very confusing but it really isnt just plan it out im sry didnt get to finish my response after i have the devices RCA cables split into my tv in the living room and the transmitter... then i have the receiverin my bedroom and i can use that device on both my tv in living room and tv in bedroom.

I have two different tv's hooked up to it. My old plasma has virtually no lag and my led has lag. I don't think it's due to the splitter though. So, I would say it's not a noticeable difference than before.

My splitter works 2 TV's just fine. I see no reason it would not work just as well with your 2 items provided they are working fine with a single line.

Yes. However, I have noticed a slight delay in the sound synchronization when the same thing is playing on both outputs. I have one output going from my computer to a TV over a 6 foot cable and the other output is going to a TV over a 25 foot cable.
