It will allow you to switch which device uses the HDMI input in the back of the TV. Cord from splitter to the back of the TV. Cords from DVR, Satelite plug into the front of the splitter. Select which device you are trying to see in the TV.

Yes, but the Remote for the HDMI Switch is not always working, you have to get up and push the Button on the Switsh manuel for the different Inputs; like the DVD Player Recorder etc, so i have the switsh in the front or next to the HD TV, to make it easy for the change over. horst

This switcher will not move its input to the DVD player automatically when turned on because the cable box is always on.

Yes. My TV has two HDMI inputs, so I have my Apple TV and DVD player in the 3 Port Switcher. It automatically synchs to whatever machine is working. There's also a manual selection option.

It works on my Vizio HD TV, so I am thinking it should work on your TV. The splitter automatically will select the input from the numbers 1, 2, or 3.

It didn't work for me. I only had 1 HDMI plug on my TV. I had to get a switch to make it work.

It has 2 HDMI inputs 2 USB and 1 AV input. You wont need to connect a DVD player tonit as it plays DVDs. So you could connect a cable box and a PS3 and anything else without a problem. And it has great sound.

If you mean watch the same thing on both tv's at the same time, than no, This will not work for you. If you want one input to go to both tv's so you can switch between the 2 tv's, then Yes. For instance. I could hook up my ps3 into this, and have one HDMI go to my TV, and the other HDMI to my computer monitor and switch between the 2 with the switch. But cant view the ps3 on both displays.

If you mean HDMI, yes, it does have one input. I had it only a short time, so I don't remember the other inputs, but I think you can download the manual.

What are you connecting the TV to? You'll need a HDMI cable for each one.My cable company included an HDMI cable with my box without additional charge. It works fine. I think it's 6' long. You might want to talk to your cable or satellite provider to see if they can give you one.If you have a DVD/Blue ray player that has an HDMI output then you'll need to get another cable for that. Check the back to make sure it has an HDMI jack first. Models over a year or so old may only have component inputs.A 6 foot cable should work fine. HDMI is so easy...one cable to connect to the TV and they only fit in one way. What are you connecting the TV to?

correct me if I'm wrong, but there is only one video input right? So only option is a video split or a y rca two inputs one out put plug into TV, but one will over power the other so you the an actual switch with the the same two inputs one out into TV. You can buy at Walmart, electronic store.

Yes. You connect an HDMI cable to the back of your DVD player and the HDMI connection on the back of you tv.

So - if this TV were to be hooked up to cable - or satellite, wouldn't it need to have two inputs? I just received the TV in the mail today but haven't yet attempted to hook my security camera to it. I hope it will work.

If the cable box and DVD player have Optical Audio outputs, then yes you can. I have 2 game consoles with that output that connect with this splitter and then run to the soundbar. You need to make sure that both devices aren't sending a signal at the same time though. Otherwise your sound will come out distorted and garbled. You can tell this by connecting an optical audio cable to the devices and looking for a red light in the end of the cable.

Yes, you need to connect RCA cables from sat receiver to DVD unit and select the DVD-R input for those particular jacks on the back (Line 1). There is no HDMI input on this model but it has RCA composite, S-Video and if memory serves me right, component input. I would use S-Video if my sat/cable receiver has such output for better picture.

I put this in the downstairs family room and an upstairs bedroom...connected to a Comcast HD cable box...as there is only one device input I can't say anything about DVD player.....but it works as advertised.

I use an HDMI cord. You might want to look into a convertor box. It took me buying and sending back 7 different DVD player's before I went back to this one. Just a warning This is the 2nd time I bought this DVD player as all the other's didn't have what I wanted or needed.

Your HDMI cable may not send the information, use one with audio return and internet capabilities. If you have it hooked to a cable or satellite receiver they (nearly all Directv and some others) cannot send the required signal, it's not the splitter, rather it's the unit hooked to it. If your signal is coming from a DVD, Blue-ray etc it should work. Check to see if the receiver is showing PCM or something else as an input source signal. The receiver should be able to decode the signal from the source via HDMI as long as the signal is provided to it at the input. Just a side note, if you have a DVR or other device as a source run the splitter directly from this device to the splitter and then to other devices such as a second receiver or a TV. If you run it to the TV then to a receiver or other device you may run into a problem as many TV's do not send the required signal out (even if it says the TV does or does not address that issue). Good luck, I know the units should send the signal but, you can email J-Tech if you can't find the problem and they will help, or send you a replacement if it is defective. However, I have several friends who have purchased the J-Tech on my advice and ALL their minor problems dealt with issues other than the splitter. On one system I had to turn everything off and hook up the connections then power up the connected devices then the splitter; it was an ARC problem but, that seemed to cure the problem. Again, good luck.

With this guy, you must switch inputs on TV, receiver doesn't convert component to HDMI signal. From receiver you will have 2 sets of wires to TV: HDMI for HDDVD

Only manages one HDMI input at a time. It is suppose to only run the powered on devise, but this feature has not worked for me. I only have one HDMI input and have Apple TV, Direct TV and my blue ray connected to this 3 way. In order to change devices I need to push a button on the switch to line up the HDMI from the device I want to use.
