My plan is to have my TV HDMI cable go into this box and the go out to my Direct TV box and Roku stick. Will this work?

I'm not exactly sure what your setup is but it seems more likely that you'd just want to connect each of those devices to their own HDMI port on the TV. If you really want them to share the same port then you probably need a "HDMI switch" rather than a "HDMI splitter" which is what the Kinivo is (a splitter divides a HDMI signal into two, a switch allows two signals to share a connection).

To my knowledge(and what I have used this product for) it is one input which it duplicates into two outputs... so I don't think that will work. There is always the off chance that it might. Keep asking around, but I would put my money on an 85% it works the way I said. Sorry.

I think it will only handle one in and two out. Like your DTV box to two tV's

I agree with answer 1 and two. However I have had mixed performance with unit I would not purchase again.

Dear Helene,Thank you for your question regarding our HS120 HDMI splitter. The HS120 will only output to HDMI capable TVs, projectors, and monitors. It will take one input and split it to two outputs. The Direct TV and Roku sticks are input devices. If you want to have multiple inputs and one output, we would recommend our 301BN and 501BN HDMI switches.Please contact us at support@kinivo.com if you have any additional questions.Thank you,Kinivo Product SupportEmail: support@kinivo.comToll Free: 1-855-4Kinivo (1-855-454-6486)Live Chat: http://support.kinivo.com(Mon-Fri: 9am-5pm Pacific) Dear Helene,Thank you for your question regarding our HS120 HDMI splitter.

Yes is should work out fine.... I had my Roku hooked up to HDMI 1 then I had my xbox hooked up on HDMI 2 ( also used as my DVD player ) and then just had the normal antenna hooked up for free TV over the air via coax and I run everything from my optical out to the soundbar, so no matter what input your on the optical should play all... Hope this helps.

This should work with any device that uses an HDMI cable. The device is basically a three-way splitter. It allows you to connect three HDMI devices to one. I have a home theater system with only one HDMI input. I connect my cable box, XBox and Roku to the home theater and they work great.

Regret I have no idea.But please note my reservation regarding the fact that it will not work with a Roku box plugged into this three way switch.One has to switch off the power to the Roku box to watch the TV box connection which defeatsthe purpose of having the switch box. Nobody including the company has addressed this issue.

Yes, however...make sure any "stick" device like the ROKU stick or FIRE stick has an extension cable for the HDMI so the devicecan fit. The HDMI jacks are re-set into the rear of the set, and some "longer" devices will need a short HDMI cable extension (most times they come with them anyway,so this is not an issue.) As far as using the "boxes" themselves via standard HDMI, NO problem!!

Thanks for the reply. I received your answer after ordering the Roku unit from Amazon, so installed it anyway. Surprise, it works just fine!

Yes, just connect your ROKU to one of the inputs. On a ROKU 3 this would be hdmi.

It would depend on the hotel has both Wifi and HDTVs with a MHL port. MHL looks like USB ports but are only on some TVs and the Roku Streaming Stick will not work with a standard USB port. Apparently this is needed for the two devices to control each other.

This 3 ft. HDMI cable will work fine to connect your Roku to your HDTV. The short length leaves less extra cable bunched up behind the TV.

yes it will because it has not only HDMI outlet but also component TV outlet ( red white and yellow connectors ) if your TV is really really old and has only the antenna IN connection in that case just get a modulator ( less than 15$) to connect Roku to Antenna IN in your TV with component. see here http://www.ebay.com/itm/Philips-PH61159-RF-Modulator-Video-Converter-with-S-VIDEO-INPUT-/261066772715

I don't know how the Roku Streaming Stick attaches to the TV. What kind of input does it require? We have an original Roku hooked up to this TV with an HDMI cable, so if the stick attaches through the same kind of input, then I would say yes.

I am using this with a Roku XD in the kitchen and its working great, just need an HDMI cable. (TV only has one HDMI input)

It works in the MHL port on my LG 32LN530B. (Currently no LG TVs are certified as "Roku Ready") On YouTube there's a review of the Streaming Stick working on a Samsung TV (no Samsungs are certified by Roku either). Apparently Roku is being unnecessarily difficult with the certification. My advice is if you really want one and your TV has an MHL port, try it even if it's not on Roku's list. You can always return it if for some reason it doesn't work.It uses the navigation buttons on your MHL-equipped TV remote. No special remote is required.

Being compatible and being fully compliant are not the same thing. Any HDMI cable should work, but if you have the Roku 3, then you notice that you get a non-HDCP compliance error sometimes. That's because the cables are not fully compliant. This cable description says that it is, which is why I'm upgrading to these.

Yeas, it works and acts exactly the same as the Roku set-top box. Same interface, you just can use the remote of the device you connect it to (TV, Blueray player) to control the Stick. I don't know about streaming from the web site - never tried it and don't know how you can get to them from Roku. But if you did it with the Roku box - you can do the same with the Stick.
