Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can you switch the inputs at the box? Can you see which input is selected on the front panel? (There is no photo of the front panel)

A: Yes, you can. Or I prefer to use the IR remote. And I know that 1 is the cable TV and 2 is the computer so I don't ever need to look. But there is a blue LED light on the top of the switch that lights up next to whichever switch is activated.

Q: 2. Can I use this switchers with OBS to switch between my dslr cameras?

A: No. This switcher works as a selector. The input you choose is the one that is send, but if you switch from one input to another, the switching is not seamless and will probably give you a second of black in between. OBS will not control this unit.

Q: 3. In theory I should be able to connect an IR repeater to the HDMI switch. Any special cables or a specific repeater that should be compatible with this HDMI switch?

A: This switch would work with Standard HDMI-A cables. An HDMI extender with 4k and IR support could be - KanexPro HDBaseT HDMI Extender BH #KAEXTHD100HT • MFR #EXT-HD100MHBThttps://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1123525-REG/kanexpro_ext_hd100mhbt_100m_4k_hdmi_extender.html

Q: 4. Does this switch automatically between sources?

A: Yes and no. If you have both devices running at the same time and turn one off it will not automatically switch. However if you have one on, say a blue ray and turn it off then turn on the second device, say a gaming console it will recognize that your blue ray is off and automatically switch to your gaming console. It also comes with a remote that can manually switch between the three inputs as well.

Q: 5. Does this have the ability to auto-switch, meaning if a device is inactive or unplugged will it automatically switch to an active/plugged in device?

A: no this device will not auto switch, you must pick the input you want to display manually

Q: 6. how far can this device send signal?

A: In general an HDMI signal can only travel around 25 feet.

Q: 7. Will this add HDMI ports to my monitor?

A: This is a Switcher that has 3 HDMI Inputs and 1 Output. You would be able to connect 3 HDMI Sources to it to switch between on a single HDMI output.

Q: 8. Does this come with a remote

A: Yes it does. This comes with an IR Remote Control.

Q: 9. Will it send audio through the HDMI out and through the TOSLINK/3.5mm outputs at the same time?

A: Yes, you will be able to send audio through the HDMi outputs and separate 3.5mm & Toslink audio outputs.

Q: 10. Anyone using this with 1st generation Chromecast? I've owned this product for a year, and it has worked perfectly with my blu ray player, cable tv, and laptop. Today I tried to connect my first generation chromecast, but it's not working. The Chromecast works when I connect it directly to the tv, but it doesn't work when I connect it to the switch. Any suggestions? Thanks.

A: Well, the input port does not provide power for the USB and Full Comunication via HDMI to the TV. Hope this is a start point to figure out a way to make it work.
