i have my ps3 and my cable plugged in to the splitter. works just fine. the only problem for me is that if i want to switch from one to another i have to get up and push the button on the splitter.

This splitter is best used to split an incoming single HDMI signal outto multiple monitors. It sounds like you are trying to send theverizon signal to the TV and the Blue Ray Signal to the TV as well.That connection will require two seperate inputs as you will mostlikely need to select which input to use when viewing TV vs Blue Ray.I hope this helps. It's the best I could come up with from the info inyour question.

We have two Rokus, could that be Roki? Anyway, we have one at our mountain home and one at out city apartment, we switch them out on our total of 3 TV's, so the answer is, convince! You can move them all over and they work where ever you use them. If you don't want to move them and possibly put in a new wifi code get as many as you can afford, if you don't mind moving them about you could have one or two and be happy. I think Roku is great and have had my first one for over 2 years.

I'm not sure because my computer already had HDMI port and it work fine. By the way, this Splitter use to display to more monitors with 1 input source. I think you need to buy a HDMI switcher so you can connect your computer, your TV cable, and another source . HDMI switcher got only 1 output to 1 TV. I hope this will help.

You can't use them at the same time, this is a switcher that will switch 2 devices automatically, It works quite well The other user must have a defective unit mine works great. I use it to switch between an always on device Roku, and my Oppo Blu-Ray player on a single HDMI jack, I have plenty of jacks but use this so that it will auto switch. I would say if that is what you need to do this should work.

This is a splitter, which will only branch the same image to both of your TVs. What you're looking for is an HDMI Switcher that has one HDMI in and 2 HDMI outs. Switchers come with a button or switch on the box that usually change the setting between sending out through port 1 or port 2, and sometimes come with the option of both ports or neither port. Switchers can also be found with remote controls. I have a Sewell Direct Ibis, which I believe will do exactly what you want, although it does not come with a remote control. The Ibis is also available in a 1x3 if that interests you more than the 1x2.I hope this helps. This is a splitter, which will only branch the same image to both of your TVs.

I used a splitter on my coaxial direct tv connection, 1 connection for for direct tv and the other for internet. However, I found out I did not need this because my cable box has a internet connector (RJ45) that I could use.

hi lawrence,i have the roku 3. this cable will not work with your setup. no roku has component ports. your hdtv doesn't have an hdmi input? if that's NOT the case, buy a standard hdmi cable and connect the hdmi port on your roku to the hdmi input on your hdtv. if u DON'T have an hdmi input on our hdtv, you need an HDMI to component cable (2nd best option. they have some on amazon & elsewhere) or an HDMI to composite cable (3rd best option. also on amazon & elsewhere). i hope this helps!- andrew

I have this receiver and wanted to let you know that on this model the HDMI ports are ONLY FOR Video. You need to use an optical cable to get at least 5.1 sound. The advantage of HDMI is that the audio and video signals are on the same cable. I don't know why it doesn't work like that on this one? It is not the top of the line so the newer ones probably have it. I think the norm now is 7.1 or 7.2 channels. It is a good receiver though. I don't even have a subwoofer hooked up to it and it still sounds good. I hope that helps you out. You can plug an optical cable from the tv to the receiver but it might be only 2 channel surround sound. I use that setup for my roku 3 I hope this helps.

Cheryl, can you tell me what type of connections you have on the back of the tv? I connected my roku via two RCA inputs for sound and one RCA input for video.

This 2X4 box will "duplicate one HDMI signal so it can be transmitted to two separate outputs. If you want to have 4 different channels on four different TVs you need 4 cable boxes. However, you could have 2 on the same channels on two TVs with the 2X4 box. If you bought a second 2X4 box you could have two of the same channels on the other two TVs.Requirement:(2) 2X4 boxes(2) cable boxes

I bought this to do just that. You do need a short coaxial cable to plug the splitter into the TV coaxial input and then plug the antenna in one and the Satellite DVR in the dual side of the splitter. I'm able to use the TV remote to switch between over the air digital channels or switch to channel 3 for the DVR. I don't get any interference from the DVR anymore and it works well for my purposes.

In theory, yes, as that is what powered HDMI splitters are supposed to do...take the original signal and amplify it so a clean signal gets to multiple devices. In practice there are sometimes problems when connecting to equipment that is several years old as they may not have implemented the later HDMI standards. For instance, I wanted to send HDMI to a new tv at the end of a 50 ft hdmi cable as well as a four year old 'smart tv' adjacent to the dish receiver. Both tvs would get the same channel although only one would be turned on. The splitter worked fine for the newer tv, but the older one would never have audio UNTIL power was cycled on the splitter. I tried several splitters .... all exhibited the same symptom. Apparently the older tv didn't have the same interface standards as the newer so I do not think ANY splitter would have worked as I intended. Bottom line is you just have to try it. Chances are it will work.

no. this splitter starts at one source and goes to two different tvs. not one tv to two different sources.sorry. i will say that product is out there. make sure you have good hdmi cables.

Not sure on this one but if you can settle for a 1x2 splitter I just received a "2 port 1x2 hdmi splitter v 1.3 compatible c1.4 3d 1080p switcher 5 8 ps3 xbox360 DVD blue- ray" today (March 18) and it does bypass the HDCP on my ps4. I'm using an elgato game capture.

This unit will actually have two tuners. So it will be capable of recording two things at once just like the DirecTV units. Which means that unless you need to record two things while watching a 3rd live program, there will be no need to split the cable and use your TV or VCRs tuner.Da

Keep in mind that this unit is a switch and not a signal divider. You can connect it to two TV's, but only one TV will be active at any given time. The unit allows you to connect a cable box to both TVs but only one of the TV's will have a signal, depending on the switch setting.
