Video game consoles, Blu-ray players, satellite receivers, digital cable boxes, and home theater receivers are all being built with HDMI outputs these days, for unprecedented picture and sound clarity. For HDTV owners this is great news, but this creates a problem. Most HDTVs only have one or two HDMI ports on their TV. The problem is solved with a push button HDMI switch. This HDMI switch features passive source switching, so that you won't have find an open outlet for an ugly wall wart, and compatibility with all HDMI formats and signals. Dimensions: 0.9" H x 6.1" W x 5" D.

Does not do 1080p
»
This switch will not pass a 1080p signal. I hooked up my PS3 to a 1080p projector, and I can only get a signal if I select 720p or 1080i in the PS3 settings. 1080p brings up no image. If I hook up the projector directly to the PS3, or use a friend's HDMI switch, I get 1080p. Not sure if my switch is defective or if the product simply doesn't support 1080p. I will be returning this ASAP.

decent

the push button switch is incredible easy and very functional. the only problem i have is sometimes when i push the button it takes about 5-10 seconds for everything to appear and sometimes (not very often) the sound doesnt work and i have to push another and go back to what i want.. but i guess "you get what you pay for" and even though thats true its still better than spending 100 dollars on a philips one that does the same thing.. i'll save my 75 bucks and push the stupid button twice!

Great Switch
»
Like the previous reviewer, I chose this HDMI switch as it didn't require electricity to function. It seems to be working perfectly with my home theater receiver and is very easy to change from Blu-Ray to PS3 with just the push of a button.

Easy to use, no power supply needed
»
I only have one HDMI input on my HDTV, so I was very happy to find this item on Amazon. It was the cheapest one I could find, and it doesn't require it's on power supply.
