HDMI 3-In 1-Out HDMI Auto Switch with 55cm Pigtail Support 3D Review

I purchased this product because it was the only solution I found that didn't require me buying another HDMI cable. I was expecting that I would need to manually switch between cable and dvd player which was fine. However, when I received the switcher a few days later, I plugged it in to the TV and attached the cable and dvd player cables to the unit (which is very small)I found that the unit switched itself, sensing where the signal was coming from. Amazing considering the price.
Dollar for dollar, this thing cannot be beat. This is one of those rare purchases that far exceeded my expectations. In my opinion, you can't go wrong with this.

HDMI 3-In 1-Out HDMI Auto Switch Review

HDMI 3-In 1-Out HDMI Auto Switch

I wanted an HDMI Switch that didn't require a remote. Unfortunately, the auto switch feature only works if the item you're switching from doesn't put out ANY current once you turn it off. Since most products (like ALL of mine) have a "stand by" mode that puts out a little juice - this feature doesn't work. For now, I'm afraid - getting one with the little remote seems to be the only option, unless you want to get up and switch it manually. It did work though on my Sony HDTV and Samsung Blu-Ray player.

Ultra High Performance HDMI Switcher, 3to1 Switch Review

Ultra High Performance HDMI Switcher, 3to1 Switch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have to say this the no-name switch outperforms the pros. I needed to connect my ps3 (hdmi) and dish receiver (hdmi) to an hdtv which only had a dvi input (using an hdmi to dvi cable). I tried the sony str-dg720 receiver for hdmi switching, then the monoprice hdmi switcher. Neither worked (the sony manual says it doesn't play well with hdmi-dvi cables, so I was going out on a limb there).
Now this little baby on the other hand, comes with extremely poor written instructions (think google translation of a foreign language manual), so I connected it not even expecting it to work. But wonders! Not only does it switch flawlessly between the ps3 and the dish receiver (producing a perfect output), it even has a "priority" function which works perfectly.
Basically, the dish hdmi port always outputs a signal, even on standby, so I keep it on a lower priority input (port 2). I've connected the ps3 to port 1, so if I turn on the ps3 this switches automatically to the ps3. When the ps3 is powered off, it automatically switches back to the dish receiver.
It's great to find a product which actually performs as advertised. Kudos to the manufacturer and CE compass (the amazon seller I bought this product from). 100% worth the money.

IOGear 3-Port HDMI Switch with Remote GHDMIS3 (Black) Review

I have three HDMI ports on the TV but four devices. I have a Samsung 1080P DLP with 5.1 surround. After reviewing and looking at all the switches I decided give this IOGear switch a try based on price. I have a PS3 and a Roku box sharing the device and it works perfect. The PS3 games and Blu Ray look and sound exactly the same. The Roku box streaming HD looks great. The 5.1 Dolby sounds awesome on both devices. Plus I now have an extra HDMI port. The switch is about the size of a deck of cards and to install I just plugged in the devices, connected the box to the TV and the switch was in place and working in just a minute or two. It requires no external power source. The only negative is that the green LED lights for power and HDMI source are to bright. When watching a good Blu Ray with the lights off I hide the LEDs with a remote.

Terk HDMI-31 Smart HDMI Switch (3 X 1) Review

Terk HDMI-31 Smart HDMI Switch (3 X 1)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When I bought my plasma TV a year ago, I never imagined that I would want to connect more than one HDMI device. That changed when I bought a DVD player with HDMI and the ability to upconvert DVD's to near HD quality. After first considering spending $400+ on a new receiver with dual HDMI ports, I opted to first try this device for about $65. Money saved. The device automatically switches between the cable and DVD inputs when I turn them on and I now can enjoy the much improved DVD video quality (I had been using composite video on the DVD player) that comes from HDMI. There is no change in the input quality from my cable box HDMI input. There was virutaly no setup involved. I simply unplugged my TV's existing HDMI connection from the cable box and plugged it into the output on the Terk box. Then I ran HDMI cables from the DVD and cable box to two of the three inputs on the Terk box and powered up. That was it. Rather than buy super costly HDMI cables, I purchased two HDMI cables from Abacus 24-7 (an Amazon contractor) at $6.99 each. They work like a charm. Since for audio I use a recevier rather than my TV speakers and my receiver is not HDMI capable, I have connected my receiver to the audio outputs of my cable box and DVD player using digital fiber optical cable and get all the capability of surround sound that I could want. Those optical cables are $5.99 each from Abacus (I found them for $12.99 to $25.99 at Fry's Electronics).
Update as of May 11, 2007. Still working like a charm. I haven't had to do anything to the unit and I basically forget it is there.
Update as of June 13, 2007. I now use my computer as a digital recording device, like a TIVO-type box. I record HDTV over the air using a Terk HDTV antenna and a Hauppauge HDTV capture card. My computer graphics card has a DVI output, so I bought a DVI to HDMI converter cable ($12 at Amazon) which connects my computer to one of the HDMI source inputs on the Terk HDMI-31 Switch. It operates flawlessly. Another reason to have Terk's multiple HDMI connection capability.

HDMI 3-In 1-Out HDMI Auto Switch with 1.5 ft. Cable Review

HDMI 3-In 1-Out HDMI Auto Switch with 1.5 ft. Cable

I purchased this HDMI Auto Switch last month, and it works just perfectly. I connected my TiVo HD DVR and DVD recorder up to this switch and into my HD TV, so that both of my components could share a single HDMI connection, and it works like a charm. Anytime that I want to watch a DVD, I only power on the DVD recorder, and the switcher automatically switches from the TiVo DVR to the DVD recorder. When I power off the DVD recorder, the switcher automatically switches back to the DVR, just like the product description on this Amazon.com site states.
I HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone and everyone out there who have multiple devices with an HDMI connection. The great advantage to having this HDMI switcher is that the user does NOT have to physically get up and push any buttons on the switcher just to use one of their HDMI connected components like their DVD recorder, DVR, etc. This HDMI Auto Switch sure beats the heck out of other HDMI switchers that require the user to physically get up and PUSH the buttons on the switcher just to use a different HDMI connected device.
To all out there with multiple HDMI connected devices, this product is an AWESOME buy for YOU.

Premium HDMI 2 Ports Mini Switch (2X1) Review

Premium HDMI 2 Ports Mini Switch (2X1)

Works perfectly. I bought my HD television before HD was the thing to have, so it only had on HDMI cable port. This switch allows me to plug both my HD SAT reciever and my Blue Ray player into the tv. I looked at the ones that has a remote for switching, but then figured "well you have to get up to put the disc in the player anyway." Plus I have too many remotes as it is, its just something else for the kids to not be allowed to play with who do anyway. It was inexpensive and does its job, what more can you ask for?
