QuestionDoes it replace the HDMI that goes out on the tv
Asked 7 years ago by Nancy.
- Answer It uses one HDMI input on your TV, but gives you three more HDMI inputs...just like a multi-outlet strip uses one electrical outlet, but then gives you multiple electrical outlets to use.

Questioni have a HDMI Cable in the wall with the source end at the tv and the tv end where the source needs to be plugged in. is there a converter or switch to reverse the source with the tv end? and vise versa?
Asked 7 years ago by Pushy.
- Answer I'm not sure if I understand this correctly, but I think you just want the ends of the HDMI switched around. There is no need for that. Both ends are the exact same and they should both work as source and TV ends.

QuestionMy TV has 2 HDMI ports. One has my cable, the other has my blu-ray player. I want to add Chromecast. Will this work with the switcher?
Asked 7 years ago by Chgo1951M.
- Answer The HDMI Selector is connected to one of your TV's HDMI ports, using that one port, but giving you three more ports. You can then connect your blu-ray player and Chromecast to the HDMI Selector (and have one port left on the HDMI Selector). My HDMI Selector has the following connected: cable, Xbox, Amazon FireStick. Works great!

QuestionNewly built house with a hdmi on center of wall. The other end is in a closet. I have a tv mounted and connected via hdmi cable to wall side. The closet end is connected to Direct tv receiver. How can I now connect a DVD player to port on tv?
Asked 7 years ago by Tigers.
- Answer I had a similar problem. I bought a Dynex 3 port HDMI switch and a HDMI cable. I hooked the cable to the Dynex and the TV and blue ray disc player to ports on the Dynex. There is a switch on the Dynex to select which to watch. It was easy to install and works fine.

QuestionIs this what is needed to hook up a play station 4 to a tube tv
Asked 7 years ago by Grammie7.
- Answer If you’re talking about a tube television as in one from the 1990s or potentially early 2000‘s the answer would be no. You’re wanting something that will take either the component (red, blue,green for video) and convert it to a single RCA (yellow for video) for a video and one for audio. But it’s really going to depend on what the back of this tube television looks like. My suggestion would be to take a picture of it, the television back, And go to the Best Buy store and tell them you need to connect your PlayStation 2 this image and let them show you.

QuestionI'm trying to connect my PS4 to a monitor that only has VGA cord input. I have the HDMI -> VGA cord but that still didn't work. If I connect the PS4 to this and the HDMI switch to the HDMI -> VGA cord and then the VGA to my monitor will it work?
Asked 8 years ago by nukerivers.
- Answer Your question is a little bit like a riddle, But I am also a gamer on the PS4 so I am a little sympathetic to your circumstance.! My suggestion would be to just try a regular run-of-the-mill HDMI cable first. I really doubt that purchasing this Forest HDMI cable is going to solve any of the hangups that you are incurring .

QuestionI have a laptop that only has one HDMI port. Will this device allow me to connect two external monitors to it and split work between the two? Are there any cons?
Asked 8 years ago by Greg.
- Answer It only allows you to use one thing at a time. It has a button on top of it that lets you go from one port to another. I got it to add a Roku to, and it works great. It shares with a WiiU. I have found no cons yet.
