Does this automatically switch when you change components you're using that are connected to it?

If I'm not mistaken, if you have several devices hooked up to it and turn one of the devices on, it switches to that port. Well it does because I was like cool, I don't need the remote. Now if you have several different devices on, of course you will need the remote or just press the button on the switch.

Yes. I have a cable box, blue ray, and a video game attached. When you power up a unit, it will automatically switch. It gets its power from the hdmi connection. Lovin it so far.

Yes! I currently use this with a Roku Box and my Xbox; it defaults to the Roku signal (because it is always "on"), but as soon as I switch on the 360, it switches over.

It is supposed to, however in my experience it isn't reliable. Mine won't switch from a Fire Tv to an Apple TV. It stays stuck on the Fire TV input even when it is turned off, and the Apple TV is turned on. For whatever reason, powering on the PS3 will force it to switch.

no, it can not switch automatic , only manual by remote and in front panel by capacitive buttons

No.A full push on the switch will turn it on or off, while a half push will cycle through the modes.

It's supposed to change to the device you are using- you probably just want to set another device as the default - also you can manually override anytime you need to

Yes, there is a button on the bottom which manually override current on/off status.

No. The device automatically changes source when a device connected to that input is powered on.

I believe so, but don't know you'd switch the inputs..maybe it does it automatically?

No.... it should switch between devices automatically. Mine dose this even if you do not use the remote. Try hooking a different device to that port. If you have the same problem again your device my be defective.

No, the unit does not automatically switch and it does require an external power supply. It comes with a remote control that I use to power on and switch ports.

I have this between a Mac Mini and PC, the switch over is instant when one of the computers is turned off. I have never tried to toggle between them when they both are running, my HP monitor will not auto stitch between them so I just use one or the other depending on what I want to do.

Yes, there's an override button that makes it work like a normal switch. It will also keep doing whatever you programmed.

once you have your sequence set and your components on, it switches through them quickly.

This unit does not feature autoswitching. It comes with a remote or you can manually select the input you wish to use from the front panel control button.

Mmmm, unfortunately it does not switch automatically (or at least I don't know how). From my experience, It will stay in the input until you switch it manually. An alternative would be getting a universal remote. This would switch the input depending on your scene. That way when you turn on your tv to watch a movie the remote will turn on the tv, the dvd and switch the input in the optical audio box. Hope this helps!

I think your question is "does the device automatically switch the output by determining which input device is powered on?"If that is your question, the answer is no. You need to manually switch the input on the device to the one you want to see/hear.

Yes. When you order the switch, you choose the configuration. You want the constant on- constant off- constant on configuration. Worked great for me.

Not that I'm aware of. I was under the impression it was manual select to begin with but it's not it automatically goes to the device that's on.
