HDMI Switcher With ARC And 4K60Hz Support | OREI UHD 402

My problem is that I have the same tv, but have a fire 4k max and ps5, plus a soundbar I want to use via hdmi, arc, but I usually have the ps5, and fire tv on at the same time and want the auto switch hdmi,without turning it off

[@shackdaddy7106]

Another benefit of these type of devices is that if you are using streaming sticks like Roku or Amazon you don’t have to plug the stick directly end of the TV. The weight of those sticks can eventually mess up the HDMI connection on the TV. By plugging your streaming sticks into these devices like you described here and then you just have one HDMI cable running to your TV. It is better for the health of your TV long-term.

[@jasonhowe1697]

typically anything that creates a lot of heat or has the potential to create heat typically goes on a cable. though with the apps on the tv it makes it a moot point to use a streaming device.. when in fact everything you will own will have access to streaming apps whether it be tv/pvr or console so the reality is you likely wasting money on a piece of tech that you don't need..

Ok I’m a new subscriber as of today. I’m so glad that i ran across this video today. I had already ordered a different brand today. I wasn’t completely sold on if it would take care of my audio needs. First of all I couldn’t find a pdf manual describing the different hdmi arc selection available. So I immediately cancelled my order in time. I’m pretty sure that the one that i almost bought only had one selection for arc. So I kept looking and ran across your video describing exactly what i needed. My need was to connect to my soundbar and have my other devices play through my soundbar. My tv is the Q60T 70inch 4K. My soundbar is the Q60T . So I’m extremely happy for watching your excellent video. Your personal time and expertise is greatly appreciated!!!! Ps. Oh yeah I ordered this Orei 402 from Amazon this evening. It was $50 bucks and will arrive by Wednesday next week. Keep up the good work young man. Solid!!!!

Hi @Tech Steve, I have similar switch, I have issues with getting sound from speakers connected to AVR receiver for different sources. My TV ARC hdmi port is connected to the OUT port of the switch. HDMI OUT port from the receiver goes into input 1 from the switch. (this is the only difference from Bose TV Speaker, which is IN) MY CABLE TV goes into input 2 from the switch etc... ARC is set to ON in AVR setup menu and TV audio setting is set to HDMI sound system (which detects ARC active). Any suggestion from your side?

I need an HDMI splitter that will stop my Soundbar from making popping sounds. Im using an HDMI splitter right now connected to my tv. im connecting my soundbar to the hdmi splitter as i have no more hmdi spots for the soundbar on the tv. The soundbar works but makes popping sounds every few minutes, very annoying. Im not sure what else to do though because the other 2 HMDI ports on my TV are needed, the soundbar has to use the spliiter. I've tried high quality HDMI cables and still hasnt fixed. Does a soundbar only work if connected to a TV Hdmi? i can never use a splitter with a soundbar? im screwed I think.....

And, my series X was intially plugged into the ARC port.

Now my soundbar is plugged into the solo ARC port with a regular HDMI cable and series X to one of the HDMI ports with a high performace cable, and for that particular port i went to options for display and enabled 4k/60fps.

Hi Steve. If I can pick your brains, I’ve got an interesting scenario, where I want 3 inputs, working across 2 outputs in the same room (Samsung Serif (EARC) and Anker Nebula 4k projector (ARC)), with all audio going through a SONOS ARC. And my ‘requirement’ is that if the inputs are producing Atmos (eg ATV input) I will get Atmos on the SONOS. So to add to the mix, I’ve picked up a HDFury Arcana. Now I’m not sure if i just split the video out from arcana to the TV and projector, and have a switch with 3 inputs running into it (2 remotes, could get messy) or if this consolidated device you’ve showcased will be the solution. I want CEC switching ideally, or one remote for source/output settings, because all gear will be out of reach.

Hi Steve, thanks for this. It seems like this would be a great device for me, but I just have one question. Does this support HDR as well? I know it supports 4K/60Hz but I was planning on using it for my PS5/Xbox One X in my setup

Yes
