Digiview 5-Port HDMI Switch w/Remote

Strengths: Very compact unit with internal amp/equalizer to minimize noise and distortion. Includes 6 ft premium gold-plated cable.

Weakness: Pricey!

This device is extremely useful if there is only one HDMI output on your receiver. Also, if a computer input is required, a DVI to HDMI converter or cable can be used, but a separate audio cable is needed.

Works as stated

Strengths: Compact, attractive

Weakness: Instruction manual was weak

This unit works as stated. The instruction manual is sparse, but not really needed.The unit is small and seems very solid. I have ordered another one for another HD set that also has only one HDMI input.

5port HDMI switch

Strengths: This box saves time and money. Its so easy to use and a good deal.

Weakness: The only weakness is that it is avertised with a 6ft cable and it is not ioncluded. It may have used to but does not now. This shouldnt be advertised like this.

do not buy

Strengths: none

Weakness: My toshiba hd-a2 will not broadcast though it

I hooked up my dvr and hd dvd player to the box and the dvr come though and the dvd does not. It lights up and will switch to it but no picture. I pluged it in alone and no change. The real kicker is I started looking for a customer service # there is not a name or number to be found, on the box or with the manual.
