Hdmi Splitter Advice

[Caleb]

Hi guys basically got a teething issue with my projector/xbox 360/hd feeview/surround sound dvd player

im using an optoma hd70 projector and get no issues through playing the xbox however when pairing the surround sound with the freeview for example i get a fussy screen until i go through a lengthy processes or restarting each appliance until they all work in sync

im using a very basic hdmi splitter into my projector as it only has one hdmi output and i think this may be the issue, its only allowing one sourse to be read from the projector at any one time,

im using this

I know this is cheap but looks more ideal than what i have

ive never used a hdmi cable but i used to have the same sort of issue with scart leed splitters

the splitter your thinking of buying looks like a good idea

but before you get it look in the instruction for you surround sound because you might be connecting everything up in the wrong order

hope this helps

That should be fine mate, splitters are notoriously bad. Switch box should do the trick

Splitters are shit. Use a switch.

Switch boxes are a much better idea. I used a basic Technik one from Sainsburys for about £10 and it was perfect for what I needed it to do.
