My TiVo does not like me running through this. It says it’s not recognizing the source. Issues getting full signal through I’m assuming and the remote is buggy.

Brand response from RocketfishCustomerSupport

Hi.
I'm sorry for this situation and that you were unable to use this with the TiVo. Some streaming devices use HDCP and needs to be in direct contact with the TV's mainboard in order to validate it as an authorized device and send the signal through. With any adapter in between the signal gets cut.

Does what I need it to do. Have PS3, PS4, Chromecast and Roku 2 all hooked up to one hdmi input. Works well just have to use the remote to switch between ports. Overall good, just a bit pricy

All the pieces/parts were there, as promised, but there is a serious flaw. It won't auto detect either of the two attached devices. I have to cycle power to the switch to get it to recognize anything. Disappointing...

never had a switch before. it works well, but it will not auto-select or find. you have to select manually and it takes about 10 seconds for it to find the source.

I purchased this because a lightning strike blew out one of my HDMI inputs on my TV. It worked fine for a few months until another strike blew out the second HDMI port. Like I say, it wasn't the fault of the switch. It certainly worked as expected.

I don’t like when you switch from one switch like PlayStation tv or another game console. It goes slow . Also the remote control you have to go very close to work a for the splitter to switch .

Overall I was pleased with the product but I was initially frustrated that everything I needed wasn't in the box and I was not readily made aware of this. You have to buy a USB cord to.connect it to the tv.

Breaks live streaming

If you are wanting to use this as a live stream input selector it will not work. When you change the device selection it disconnects the HDMI output to the TV or Device changes the input and then reconnects.

Only works for TVs like Samsung, Sony and LG I’m sure. The TV I was trying to use it On was a Hisense tv from China and won’t work. Had to return.

Not sure if this would be the case with device by itself. I use this with a splitter that displays to multiple tv. Other sources work great but when I was working on my mini the video would not display with this device.

Works as a basic switch

I've used other switches for around the same price, and they worked so much better. I only picked up this one because it was in store, and I had a gift card. It works, but it's slow to switch between channels, to the point that I get out of my chair to check on it because I think it's broken. The remote has to be pointed directly at it, line of sight, making it impossible to hide this device. Also, just a cosmetic issue, but there are 3 inputs and the output on the back, with the 4th input being in the front. I feel this is backwards, and they should either all be in the back, or have the output in the front.

This was a great idea, I just wished it wouldn't shut off while I'm watching the firestick. It doesn't do that when the PS4 or the switch has been on for a while.

Some Issues

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
A couple of devices did not work through this, but enough did that I was able connect everything using this and the HDMI ports on my TV.
I had sporadic issues with the audio from my Blu-Ray player dropping in and out until I power cycled the box, so it got plugged directly into the TV. Also, the video feed from my PC would not come through so that was plugged directly into the TV as well.
It works and is compatible with my Harmony remote, but the price has turned out to be a bit high when considering the juggling of connections I ended up having to do.

Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. I could not use it for my Nintendo game. When the game is plugged in to the HDMI I will get no sound I had to plug plug the game in direct.

I bought this as my sound bar only have one hdmi input. My PS4 would not work with this switch so I ended up not using it. Other than the PS4 issue, it works great.

Cost to Much, but desperately needed

Only reason I went ahead and paid the amount that it cost was that I desperately needed a switch for all of my components. The cost is way to much for what it is.

Over Priced

This items works great, the video quality is very good. My only complaint is the price. It was extremely high priced and it was the only item of its kind in the store. There were no other options to choose from so I was forced to purchase this one.

Sound issues

Sometimes the sound messes up and you have to turn your tv off then on again but otherwise no real problems. It also doesn't come with an HDMI cord so make sure you have enough for the hook ups
