Questions & Answers
If each computer has two HDMI outputs, this would most likely work. You'd connect computer 1 to input 1/2 and computer 2 to input 3/4, then select input 1/3 for the first output and 2/4 for the second output, depending on which computer you're using.
Yes, as well as when multiple displays are being output to.

The HDMI matrix acts as a screen cloner for four devices to two screens, with two audio outputs (one for each output screen). It has 4 HDMI inputs, 2 HDMI outputs, 2 analog audio outputs, and 2 optical audio outputs, as well as 8 output LEDs (each indicating which device is outputting on which display), one IR led for IR input from the remote control, a power LED, and two Key buttons on the front of the panel. If my memory serves me correctly, the housing is entirely made of metal, specifically steel. incredibly tough br>br>I only used three displays because I only had three devices to display from, but the outputs were all up to 4K as specified. A 4K Roku, a laptop, and a desktop were used in this experiment. One audio out went to a sound bar via optical audio, and the other went to a TV via HDMI. I was able to easily switch between inputs and output their display on the respective screen using the three devices and the remote; if the device outputting to the screen had audio, and the optical cable associated with that output was plugged in, the audio would play with no discernible impact on the audio quality because it was completely digital. The matrix's instructions came in handy because they tell you on the back which switches should be in which positions to enable which features, so this is one device that pays attention to the user manual. DO NOT TOSSE IT IN THE GARBAGE! This is far from user-friendly. friendly. The most basic features are straightforward and easy to use. However, there are a slew of different settings that could leave you wondering why 3D isn't working or why your outputs aren't in 4K. All of this information can be found in the user manual. However, because the switches are either up or down, 1 or 2, setting it up with the user manual isn't difficult either. Simply choose the setting you want, check what the manual says, and set it. br>br>I can see myself using this in my office, but not for dual monitors, but rather for entertainment- Setting up a display for my server and Roku devices, possibly an input as a third display on my desktop for videos, etc. This did not recognize the two outputs as two separate monitors if you didn't have two outputs from your computer into two separate inputs on the matrix, so don't get this thinking you can get dual monitor usage out of it, it's a screen cloner-type device. Like a presentation, it sends a single signal to two screens. The Output LEDs are the only criticism I have. When one LED turns on, the one next to it turns on a little bit as well. This doesn't change the fact that the one that lights up is significantly brighter than the others, but it does appear to be a minor oversight. To prevent light leaking, I would even put a small barrier between the LEDs. It would not be a significant cost to the manufacturer, and it would result in a much cleaner-looking product. All-in-one product. br>br>All-in-one product. br>br>All-in-one product. All in all, an excellent product at a reasonable price of $42.
I'm very familiar with HDMI matrix switches, having owned them for a long time and being a heavy user of this type of equipment (at home, not in a professional setting). I purchased a bargain box to replace my (different brand) original when it died of old age. We quickly discovered that this budget box had a number of issues, including a failure to pass audio from at least two different sources, as well as poor IR signal rejection from other remotes and interfering codes that caused the box to shut down. I went looking for a new box and came across THIS current Ferrisa switch. br>br>I'm very happy with this switch's performance! It not only fixes the issues with the cheap switch I bought, but it also outperforms it in terms of performance. This switch also works with my old switch. The box is a dangling dangling dangling dangling So far, everything has been close to perfect; I can't think of anything wrong with it, and it has a lot of positive aspects. The box switches between sources quickly, reliably, and rejects other signals (which means I can use it perfectly with my IR extender!). ), and it is very accurate in passing through all signals. Two (2) different spec TVs (an LG traditional HDTV and a Sharp Roku HDTV) are connected to it, as are four (4) different HDMI sources (a TiVo, a DVD player, an Amazon FireStick, and a Google Chromecast). Audio is routed through the main TV path to a Bose box in one of the rooms, as well as through the main TV path to a Bose box in another room. board in one, but if I wanted to, I could route audio through the switch - It's a nice feature to have as a backup. br>br>The IR repeater I own allows me to switch between the living room and the kitchen, with the box receiving the IR repeater signal flawlessly and responding quickly. The box's indicator lights are bright enough to see, but not so bright that they obstruct viewing in a dark room, as some other boxes do. The on- If I ever need to use them, the board source switching buttons are a great backup to the remote. Overall, I'm very happy with this change! It was well worth the money, and it taught me not to buy cheap switches in the future. I would recommend this switch to anyone because the price is very reasonable for what you get.
This one can take care of everything. With four HDMI inputs and two HMDI outputs, you'll have a lot of options and room to expand. The two optical outputs are extremely useful. One will go to my sound bar, while the other will go to my bluetooth TX unit for my headphones. I can get rid of TWO remote controls (one for my TV and one for my Audio Receiver) by purchasing this unit. ) It runs without a hitch, with no video or audio degradation. In a nutshell, there is no way to go wrong with this device.
The Matrix switch is the heartbeat of my functioning mancave, and I was looking for a switch with an optical out so I could play the sound through my surround sound system. br>br>I was looking for a switch that had an optical out so I could play the sound through my surround sound system. br>br>I was looking for a switch that had an optical out so I could play the sound through my surround sound system. br>br>I was looking for a switch I'd also like to be able to choose which input appears on my television. With this switch, any of the four inputs can be displayed on one or both TVs. I shared a shabby image of my set-up. The only reason I gave it four stars is because switching inputs has a noticeable lag (up to five seconds), but it otherwise works perfectly for my devices. br>br>I've read some good things about the 4K processing capabilities, but I don't have any 4K-capable devices connected to the switch yet.
This is the ideal solution. I'm overjoyed that I discovered this. It enables me to connect multiple hdmi devices to my TV and DVD theater system (cable dvr box, fire stick, etc. ). HDMI cables were used to carry video from the cable box and the fire stick to the switch, HDMI cables to carry video from the switch to the TV, and fiber optic cables to carry audio to the theater system. Toggling between the fire stick and the cable box is done with the remote. I've been using it for a few weeks now and have had no problems.
