User questions & answers

Question:	Does this cause any input lag
Answer:	I use it with a 50’ HDMI cable to an outside TV with no lag at all.
Question:	Will this auto switch to the second device when you turn the second device on
Answer:	I'm happy to say there is absolutely no automatic switching. That feature does not work perfectly and is a pain. I do not want any switch to move until I manually tell it to do so. That way the switching is problem free. I would pay tripple for a switch (like this one) that has no automatic feature. It never works correctly all the time, a hassle.
Question:	Does it work with a fire stick
Answer:	I am using a fire stick and blu-ray player. 2 things how is your fire stick from your router? I moved my router because it said, You have a fair signal. You want a good or strong signal from your router cable modem with router. I also used a high quality 3 foot $ 16 HDMI cable from Home Depot. More money then the the switch. I also have a LG HD TV love this tv. I have no sound lag.
Question:	Do I need an hdmi cable for the single end or is one included
Answer:	You will definitely need 3 HDMI cables, with male connectors on all ends, to obtain full use of the Techole Bi-Directional HDMI Switcher. However, you may need to avoid inputting signals using HDMI cables with Ferrite cores. (HDMI cables with Ferrite cores have a round cylinder located just before the connectors on each end.) I use 2 Techole switchers: One splits a Roku output between my TV and receiver and the other one does the same for a Blu-ray disk player. My first HDMI input cables had Ferrite cores and the Techole switcher did not work at all; no switch light and no output signal. However, when I used non-Ferrite core HDMI cables for the input signals, the Techole worked perfectly, even with Ferrite core cables leading from the Techole switcher to the TV and receiver. As an additional precaution, I used 3 foot HDMI cables to minimize signal loss to the Techole input terminal.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is a "pigtail" cable? Is it different from other cables
Answer:	"Pigtail" mean that it has an HDMI cable "out" permanently attached to one end. No need to buy and extra HDMI cable just to attach the unit to your TV.
Question:	Will this work with a blu-ray player and the new Amazon Fire TV device
Answer:	I purchased this switch, it states it is an auto-switch. It did not auto switch, recommend you get a Cable Matters version of this switch it does auto switch to the most recent powered on device. To answer you question, Yes I installed a cable matters switch at a friends house with a blu-ray, Fire TV, and Fios Box and it works great.
Question:	I need to know how this works? which plugs into the tv or what? Thank you. Just want to make sure it does what i need it to
Answer:	The single end plugs into the hdmi port on your tv and expands your hdmi ports from 1 to 3. It is helpful if your tv only has 1 hdmi port and you are in need of more than 1.
Question:	Novice here...confused why some say in comments this is not a splitter. Need to connect bluray & DirecTV Genie client box to TV w/ single hdmi port
Answer:	Answer: People complain it's not a splitter because they don't know how to buy the right item. This is not supposed to be a splitter. Splitter: 1 input to many outputs. Example: one cable box to 5 TV's. Splits 1:5.Switch/Multiplexer: many inputs to 1 output. Example: 3 HDMI devices to 1 TV input. Allows 3:1.In electronics, a multiplexer (or mux) is a device that selects one of several analog or digital INPUT signals and forwards the selected input into a single line OUTPUT. Since people don't know the correct technical term, they call it a "switch". Close enough.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this output audio over hdmi? I am not getting any sound from my applet when connected through this device
Answer:	I don't think your audio problem would be due to the switch. HDMI bundles the audio and video signals together, if you're getting anything at all, audio or video, then the switch is working. I suggest you try making a direct connection from the source to your applet without the switch, if possible, as a test. Check your applet settings.
Question:	Does the button have any sort of audible click, or is it simply sitting on a spring
Answer:	There is no audible click when you press the button.
Question:	Hi, i plan to use it as a 2 sources into 1 tv hdmi input port. is it truly auto-switch or one must select the input with the button? thks for info
Answer:	ANSWER: YOU HAVE TO USE THE BUTTON.The first(1) is automatic. If you want to use the second(2) turn off whatever you have on (1). Then turn ON whatever you have on (2) and press the button the button on the switch. ..a green light will go on near #2. In each case the GRREN light should go o next to the number. The switch gets its power for the Green light when the device is on. To avoid any problem..Turn Device (1 )OFF when using DEVICE on (2 ) and vice versa (2) OFF when (1) is in use. The button on switch transfers the connection to the two Devices(e.g a VCR player and a DVD player are accessed without plugging and unpluggin when you have just one HDMI input to a TV...But you have to press the button on the switch when MAKING the switch. Hope it all makes sense.
Question:	if using for 2 in and 1 out do both input devices need to be ON in order for the switch to work
Answer:	I'm sure you've long ago found the answer yourself but thought I'd answer for anyone else looking back on this question because it's a good one. I ended up not buying this switch because it appears that in this configuration (2 devices going to one display, such as a laptop and a Playstation both hooked up to a TV) it requires one of those devices to be providing power at all times. This means you could potentially need, for example, to have the laptop on for the switch to have the power it needs to let the Playstation display on the TV. Not ideal. For reference, see the review titled "Defective or terrible design? Either way, thumbs down.". He explains a similar situation.

Answer:	It should work if you set source input of your TV to your second HDMI port.
Question:	When my hdmi cables are connected... i get picture but no sound at all... anyone have the same issue? and if you do, how to fix it
Answer:	Hdmi cables connects your source to monitor is for display. I think you may check your source device for audio port. Some monitor has built in audio support you may check if audio from monitor is configured correctly. Monitor normally doesn’t support audio by itself except ones with audio built in.
