Any good?
What is the issue? I am actually using the power adaptor from another of the HDMI switches that I bought, but once I get rid of that I'll be back to the supplied one.
I have had no issues with it.
I need a 4k 18gpS HDR switch.Looking at the LIGAWO 3090063 3 x 1 HDMI Switch at amazon.Looking to buy it, but thought I would ask here first if a better switch has come along for HDR yet since last post?
Thanks
Not that I am aware of. I found a good deal on the 3090064 (the 5x1 version of the same switch) so have moved to that.
The issue that I had with non-4K/HDR sources flashing off was present on both the 3x1 and the 5x1, but was solved with a second change of HDMI cable. I am not sure if this means the switch is fussy or my first two cables were poor.
The only small ongoing issue that I have is that the auto-switching doesn't work 100% of the time, but I think that this is partly down to my set up. I have my AVR as an input into the switch as when one of the other devices powers on it might not be registering that as the last device. The remote sorts it out anyway.
I think that the next stop is a lot more money. The HD Fury Integral is currently £216 on Amazon, the Ligawo is £55. I am currently considering buying the 1x2 switch to integrate an Nvidia Shield TV into that system.
Thanks.Don't think I need a 5 switch. The 3x1 will do Xbox one S, PS4 Pro and the new Nvidia Shield TV.Thats plenty.Cheers for the reply mate data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
How are you planning to get the sound from the Nvidia Shield TV into your AVR, if you have one?
I have got the original Shield TV in my main setup and I plan to move it into the setup with the switch when I buy the new Shield TV for may main room.
At the moment, the Shield is plugged straight into my AVR which is 4k/HDR compatible, so I get video and audio at the same time. In my second setup, the AVR is not 4K/HDR compatible, hence the switch. I currently have a Samsung K8500 which has two HDMIs and a PS4 Pro which has an optical out into the AVR leaving the HDMI free to send video to the Ligawo switch.
I am currently considering the Ligawo 1x2 switch for the Shield, but I am not sure if there is any other way of getting sound out of the Shield TV.
I have 3 HDMI's on my samsung, but only HDMI 1 has HDR.(Hence why I need the switch)
To get sound my home cinema has optical so run that to my TV's optical so all HDMI's run video and sound through the TV to my home cinema. Neo-DTS I'm happy with.to get sound out of shield your need to have hdmi run video and sound.I'm sure it will have that option in settings?It better
Cost isn't much different. Buy the 5 port one and make sure to get the HDR version

Also looking at this cable.It says it does 18 Gbits/s which it needs to do for HDR
