1x4 2.0 HDMI Splitter with Scaler Audio Extractor Up to 4K@60Hz, EDID

I started implementing a setup that can swiftly shift between playing nintendo and singing karaoke one year ago (Winter 2023) - This splitter has been the core of my setup since then. The tricky part is in karaoke system, since it involves in a TV box for the music and multiple microphones. I ended up using a mixer to mix the music and mics. The mixer takes only analog input - and that's where this splitter shines: It extracts audio from either input and output it through a 3.5mm analog port, which works great for my solution. The switcher is also very convenient, because of it I can switch between nintendo and tv box for karaoke with just one button.

Really cool. I use this too send HDMI video from my PS3 to my monitor and capture card. I also use the optical audio out to feed into my Astro Mixamp. Works great!

Update::: Tried with AppleTV instead and it works flawlessly! Maybe something wrong with the Roku output, I’m not sure. Both video splitting and Audio works nicely! —————— The Video splitter seems pretty good for 4k. But the audio extractor didn't work out for me..I got only some hissing noise. I have the audio extractor output going to an amplifier, and it just gave me a hissing noise. Its the same cable I used from a Roku XS2 device that works with the system I have. I'm not sure if there is something different I need to try.

I have a TCL QM7K and TCL has decided not to put a 3.5mm hesdphoen jack on their TVs and will not support output to optical and HDMI at the same time. So people with hearing aid transmitter are NOT SUPPORTED and have to try and find another solution to support a non-hearing impaired and hearing impaired listeners at the same time. So I bought this OREI 1x2 HDMI splitter as it says it has an audio extractor. But only works if passing video in the hdmi signal. When you use an eARC channel hooked only to a sound bar, and pass that eARC output to the OREI, it will not see a video signal. Therefore it will not lock on to the signal and process the audio. So knocked off 3 stars as that was the whole reason i bought it. It works fine and extracts audio to the optical output and eARC simultaneously if I hook a cable receiver hdmi output to the OREI and thenthe OREI output to the TV so video and audio are in the HDMI signal. But then you cant get the TCL Smart TV apps audio sent to your hearing aid transmitter because the eARC port is downstream of the OREI splitter and its only getting HDMI signal from the cable receiver. If I use a seperate 3rd party HDMI 2x1 switch, run the cable receiver to input 1, a FireTV stick to input 2, then hook the 3rd party HDMI switch output to the OREI input, and the OREI output to the TCL HDMI input 1; then the OREI will send audio to the optical output and the TCL will pass audio to the TCL eARC port and out to the soundbar. But thats a convoluted mess, and why have a Smart TV then... I have reached out to OREI support and will update with their feedback. OREI should figure out how to process audio from an HDMI signal when it is lacking video and just has audio. That would make this product 100%... UPDATE: I had several email exchanges with OREI support, they confirmed right out the gate that the product needs a video signal for the hardware to be able to sync and decode the audio. So while I could cobble together and external solution using a hdmi switch, smart device (,like roku or FireTV) and my cable box, that is not what I prefer. So think I'm going to just set down and see if I can design my own with a decoder and firmware (im a retired firmware engineer). So I added stars back for the assistance amd willingness to help from OREI, great support team.

Great splitter that supports plug and play operation. No impact on the quality of the images and durable.

Switches are tiny and no quality instruction on how to set them. I wanted 4k dolby sound to my main tv and 1080p to the second which product description says this should do. It cannot. To get it set to send full 4k to the main tv i had to switch the first to copy, it could not then downscale properly for 2nd tv. Turning on the downscaling gave me a distorted picture on the 2nd tv and turning it off gave me a blank screen. If I switched the first switch to auto I only got 1080 on all screens.

Got this so I could play football on multiple TVs in different rooms, from a single cable box. Wanted to make sure sound and picture were synchronized. This worked perfectly and was exactly what I needed! I’m able to play 3 TVs on the single source with no delay and no impact to picture quality. (Has ability to go up to 4 TVs). Super easy setup. Highly recommend this.

I have a 60" Panasonic Plasma that only supports PCM 2.0 through HDMI, and an older Harman Kardon 5.1 receiver that doesn't support HDMI switching. I'm using the Optical out from the 1x2 Splitter, to send 5.1 audio to the HK Receiver for much better sound. When watching a movie or program I want 5.1 audio from, I force the Firestick to output Dolby Digital, this kills audio to the TV speakers since it only supports 2 channel audio, so I switch it on/off as needed. I also use the HDMI splitter to send the output from our Living Room Firestick to a TV in the Bedroom. Did this for many years on Dish Network as I didn't have to pay for a 2nd receiver that way, but recently upgraded to this splitter for the audio optical out. Also have another OREI splitter in my RV that's doing the same thing.

No problems so far. I wish i had got a slightly different model, but it still works fine for my purposes. And no problems. Its working well. It was taking up space on my desk till i mounted it using those velcro command sticky strip things (which i just cut to size and shape with scissors).

Successful initial install driving 1 TV and 2 monitors - 3 HDMI outputs - from a security system HDMI output; no problems with HDMI interface, protocol or compatibility whatsoever. Worked instantly.

The product is good, but NOTE - THIS COMES WITH US PLUG so it needs a new adapter for Europe. The product comes from the USA. It means that although one can get return authority, it is not possible to return the product as the French Post does not accept packages to be delivered to USA. DHL might do, but this is complicated and expensive

Good product as per my requirement

Werkt prima
