Novice here...confused why some say in comments this is not a splitter. Need to connect bluray &amp; DirecTV Genie client box to TV w/ single hdmi port.

It turns two hdmi inputs into a single input. It has a selector on the device that let's you switch between input 1 and input 2. So it's not technically a splitter since you have to manually switch from one device to another. Easy to use though, I enjoy it.

This splitter is used for swim tech. installations for Directv. I wouldn't use it for any other purpose my self.....Contact Directv for your answer if you are concerned about its use .....

This is a HDMI Splitter... Meaning you take the output of one device (like a Satellite Receiver) and then split that signal to multiple TV's. If you TV only has 2 HDMI inputs and you need another one, why not consider using the Component Inputs on the TV, it will give you a good HD picture... Hope this helps...

Not sure on this one but if you can settle for a 1x2 splitter I just received a "2 port 1x2 hdmi splitter v 1.3 compatible c1.4 3d 1080p switcher 5 8 ps3 xbox360 DVD blue- ray" today (March 18) and it does bypass the HDCP on my ps4. I'm using an elgato game capture.

So, you've got TWO sources (Xbox and Atv) going into the splitters two-port end and then the single port goes to your sound bar? Unless the splitter is broken or horribly misaligned, your setup SHOULD work. There should be no serious loss in light intensity (signal degradation) going that way, UNLIKE going from a single source to two outputs (light cut in half AT LEAST) where the unit almost never works. The only wrinkle it that you MUST make sure your two sources are not outputting light at the same time. This will produce an unusable input into your light bar. Hope this helps - good luck!

Works for my set up with both audio and video. Receiver output is split into two other components. Both audio and video. Must understand, with my set up, this is NOT HDTV. I never tried to split component for HDTV, so not sure if that would work. Just video and left/right audio.

I finally ditched cable and this is the only way I watch TV and movies....I would also suggest getting a 15' HDMI cable (that is what I hv) so I can watch TV from my couch. But definitely it will work...it has 2 HDMI ports. I don't have any game systems or bluray devices....so this works for me very well. Let me know if I can help you out w/anything else.

all you need is a 4 way swm splitter. It has to be a directv swm splitter a regular splitter will not work.

In order for my setup to work correctly I have to use both the HDMI and the optical out on my Apple TV. My receiver is a 2001 Integra DTR6.2 which was made before HDMI existed so I run my HDMI into this switch and out to the TV. I then run the optical output from each device into this optical switch - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003C15798/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This works for me. I'm not sure if I answered your question. However one thing that I can tell you is tht this switch will not separate the audio from the video, which is why I needed the seperate optical switch.

You need a HDMI splitter, not this which is a switcher. A splitter splits the signal to two (or more) monitors/TVs/projectors, so all work simultaneously.

In theory...that is the intent of the splitter. However, this particular item was a piece of crap. It failed within 2 months of purchase and would no longer properly split my HDMI signals. I recommend going with a splitter, but not this particular one.

Check all your connections, you should not have to do that. I have my Direct TV going to the in..........and my Roku & Bluray in the other inputs. It works fine when I toggle from one to the other. Also your input must be correct as well. Could be a bad unit......

no. this splitter starts at one source and goes to two different tvs. not one tv to two different sources.sorry. i will say that product is out there. make sure you have good hdmi cables.

David: I only used the cable to go from a splitter to another HDMI tv. I do know that the cable signal only runs in one direction. I ran 100' without knowing that tidbit and had to uninstall the cable and reverse the direction. Once I did that the signal is perfect.

I use the optical connection from my TV. So two other inputs are available, RCA type right and left and a minijack. So if your bluray can adapt to either of these two inputs, the answer is yes.

I don't thank that you could use this one for what you are trying to do. You would need a splitter that would go from (1) source in and send it to 2,3 or 4 out, as would the # VPHDMI04 is a 4 way for 4 tv. sets from one computer. Using HDMI cables you could see the computer on all 4sets. you would not have control at the 4 sets. The computer would be the only place that you could control all 4. AT Amazon.

The Linkcast only has one HDMI port out. You would have to use a spiltter to watch on 2 TV's at the same time. I have not tried a splitter but I am using a 1 port to 5 port switch with good results.
