Will this work with a Verizon FiOS HD Box? (These boxes always output and HDMI signal with "Press Menu to turn on set-top box" while in standby.)

It switches HDMI cables/signals; so it shouldn't matter what the source of the cable or signal is. I have had no problems with mine.

It should as I use mine with a Roku and that device is an always on device. I use it to auto switch between an Oppo blu-ray deck an the Roku, the Roku is the slave while the Oppo is the master. When the Oppo is on it swaps to that deck when the Oppo is off it swaps back to the Roku. So based on how I use it I would say it should work for your purpose. As long as one device that does turn completely off is the master.

It should, though I don't know from experience. I have Verizon but not Fios.

Google which boxes it works with. It will work with some HD boxes, but you won't get HD channels

It worked for several days before I added the switch. I'm using the basic FiOS setup with an actiontec WiFi router that Verizon gave me.

Dear Mary O.. One more thing I forgot to mention, if your cable box is connected via an HDMI cable make sure you pick HDMI for an input, not CABLE as these are two different connectors..

Thanks for defining what I was trying to describe, "Standby pass-through". With that I was able to Google what I was looking for and found the following from Onkyo news:"All 2010 HDMI v1.4 models include a new feature call HDMI Thru. HDMI Thru allows content to pass through to the TV when the receiver is in a standby state." I'll hold off on the 3300 and get the HT-S3400 when it's released.

Matthew...Who do you use for Broadcast service...cable, Fios, DirecTV? I am having the same issue with this TV, Samsung Surround sound system and DirectTv. I am thinking it may have something to do with going through a receiver for surround sound. Do you use one?

It is not compatible with Verizon FIOS at all, at least that was written on the box I received (although not mentioned anywhere on the description on the site).

It did not work with my FIOS QIP 7216 or 7232. I received it Jan 22, 2014 and followed the setup procedures meticulously--twice per box--and neither box recognized it. I'm not sure if the WD drive may have been defective; it was very poorly packed and certainly got rattled around a lot in transit. I'm returning it tomorrow.

Not too sure about the cable box, but it should be fine with the TV. It did work with my Comcast cable box, I would assume that the Verizon box should have codes as well. I did return mines, however, since it wouldn't operate my home theatre system.

I have had no problem getting OTA digital stations. The box has a connection for a satellite, dont have a dish, but I see no reason it should not work. What the box does is select what input you send to each tv. It doesnt care what the signal is, it just switches it.

SLONamd - I do not know if the "sleep" mode will trigger the power off - I use this with my Verizon FIOS box. However, I turn off the box (using the remote) and it powers everything down - wish I could be of more assistance.

Yes, we have received some feedback from clients on FIOS who are happy with it! If you have any problems, please contact HQTelecom for support -- just make sure you order it from our store (seller: HQTelecom). Thanks!

If you mean for Verizon FIOS yes it should work. Verizon FIOS is only Fiber up to the local Routers they have and then it is Coax to the home. For internet it will work fine but some said they had lost TV options and other things. So for internet use only this thing should certainly work and be a thumbs up good to go.

I haven't used this feature so cannot comment on the supported video formats I'm afraid. Sorry. I use the TV with my Verizon fios and a bluray player.

When FIOS was installed for me, the FIOS technician had set that all up...I would contact FIOS to either have one mailed to you or set up an appointment for a technician to install it

Yes. I use Verizon FiOS HD TV service and I have two cablecards for the dual channel capability. Please note: The signal coming from FiOS is very powerful, and in many cases too powerful for the TiVo. I had to purchase a "db attenuator" which is a small plug that goes inline with the incoming coax cable. I am using a 20db attenuator. Without the attenuator you may get signal problems/pixelation. If you go into "Messages & Settings" and click on "Diagnostics" you will see "SN Ratio" (Signal to Noise Ratio). The sweet spot for TiVo Series 3 is "31db - 32db". If it's more than that you may get choppy picture. Yes. I use Verizon FiOS HD TV service and I have two cablecards for the dual channel capability.
