would this work for direct tv hdmi signal??

I use comcast and it works great. I would think it would be the same for directTV

theoretically yes, but i bought two of these, neither would give me video output, i had them replaced and those didn't work either. i recommend finding a multiport composite switch with hdmi out at your local electronics store. it will cost about 5 times more, but it will work and is easier to return if it doesn't.

There's no reason why it shouldn't. If all those devices have HDMI ports, than all this will do is switch between the devices inputing signals, depending on which one is one and/or more recently turned on.

No it will not work. I purchased this and this item EnjoyGadgets HDMI to VGA & Component YPbPr Video Converter Adapter, Support Audio, S/PDIF, 5 RCA. And the C&E; did not work I returned it but the EnjoyGadgets item will work for what you need. I am using it to connect my directv box to my Tv that no longer has functioning hdmi ports and I am using this item to hook up component cables to my tv and my ps3 has hdmi ports. Hope this helps.

Nope. Wish it would. If older reviews are still available there is one that suggests a very limited use for this cable. HDMI is a digital audio and video signal and needs a digital to analog conversion with synchronization of the audio to the video. A cable can't do that. It requires digital signal processing to do the conversion. The cheapest way to do that is buy a digital TV. There are converters, but they cost way more than the converter box to convert HDTV to NTSC analog.

The device in the HDMI out port would send the same signal to two devices so it should work with it!

That's exactly what I tried (except I think you meant HDMI output, not input). It didn't work at all for this particular converter. I'm going to try a more expensive converter that looks identical and supposedly does the same thing, but I haven't ordered it yet.

That should work. The HDMI to DVI conversion isn't particularly finicky in regards to what will and will not work for VIDEO. It shouldn't matter in this application, but DVI doesn't carry Audio like HDMI does, so bear that in mind for any other applications.

I don't think so the hdmi and rca run diff signals. The cable is used for some kind of converter that is a separate device. I think you are about to make the same mistake i did.

IF the TV you are transmitting from has a HDMI output AND a USB port, I guess it would........not sure though

Yes. You have to make sure it is set for DirectTV. The user manual has instructions on how to do that.

It should work. My TV had a DVI input plus separate audio in (RCA pin type ones). I am pleased with the product. I use 3.5mm stereo to RCA pin (red/white) cable with the product to make the audio connection.

It is my understanding that this device, and I have no reason to doubt it, will convert a digital signal to a 'conventional' signal which is needed for some of our older devices that do not accept 'digital' signal ... I would say this would work for you if your cable device emits 'digital' sound outputs and you want to hook up this to a sound bar etc., that does not accept a digital signal ... works great for me!

I use the 'HDMI' instead of the 'VGA' output. Since that connection is available on the receiver unit, I would have to guess it will probably work, as you require.

If your tv has a DVI input & the coax you're referring to is digital coax for sound, then yes it will work.

Most likely no. This is for converting HD-SDI to HDMI. It can be used in professional video systems (as I use it to convert from my switcher to a projector for live events) or security systems that use the HD-SDI standard. Typically cable uses coax cable with RF connections carrying a very different signal that needs a decoder, which this is not.

Should be able to do it since it has a HDMI input. I'm using a component converter from my cable box as I have an older cable box that doesn't have HDMI output but I just went in and looked and it has the HDMI input as shown in the product description.
