Worked intermittently.......2007-06-03
My high def. satellite receiver only has 1 HDMI output. I wanted to connect 2 TVs that are in different rooms. I plugged this splitter into the satellite receiver and ran the two split lines to the TVs. It worked intermittently. Mostly I got 1080i video only, sometimes I got nothing- a blank screen, and a few times it actually worked ok with both audio and 1080i video. I gave up on it and put it away in storage. It's too undependable for me. Updated (6-06-07)- I gave it one more try: colors are blurry and blotchy, no audio, and probably too late to return it. Also, when connected, HDMI cables don't even fit into it snuggly. I'd change this review from two to one star if I could.
HDMI passive Splitters are a waste..........2007-05-06
This item is useless, i got it thinking i would be able to connect my hdmi cable box and my hdmi upscaling dvd player, but neither work when they are both connected picture/sound flashes, they drown out each others signal even if the other device is powered off, like the signal is leaking backwords. The only way it works is if you have only 1 device plugged in to it, so that makes it pretty useless, unless you needed a 12inch hdmi extender...... I would of sent it back but it was so cheap it wasnt worth the time and effort.
Complete junk do not waste your time, get an active switch if you need more HDMI ports
Snow with 720p/1080i sources and no video on 1080p.......2007-02-20
Not sure if the other reviewer "Nando" actually tried using this particular splitter??
This splitter is useless. You purchase a splitter because you need to send the output to two displays (in my case a TV and a Projector). However, with this splitter, the picture results in some snow when using 480i/480p/720p/1080i sources (such as directv or comcast). And using the splitter results in no video at all with 1080p sources such as PS3 Blu-Ray. Audio output from all sources functioned properly, but without proper video output, this device is non-functional. Solution: I removed the splitter from my configuration (my HDMI cables are not the problem).
I'm searching for another splitter.
THIS IS A SPLITTER - NOT A SWITCH.......2006-12-27
Dan J. Holloway "DJ Dan" review below is incorrect. This is splitter cable. You can only connect one input device (i.e. DVD player,cable box or satellite receiver) to two output device(i.e. TV or projector).You can't connect two input device (i.e. DVD player,cable box or satellite receiver) to one output device(i.e. TV or projector)
If you need sopmething to split two input devices you will need to buy an HDMI switch.
Get the facts straight and don't blame a cable for something you did not do the research on!
Item is a waste of money.......2006-12-19
The splitter can only accept 1 video source at a time so if you need to operate a different hdmi source you have to plug it in and unplug the other. There is almost no use at all for this item.
