Hi guys, has anyone tried using HDMI splitter (using 1 input and connecting to 2 outputs)? I read quite a few reviews at amazon but most of them only talk about outputs 'observed' from TVs and the video part of it seems to be working fine. However, I did find a few reviews where the outputs were connected to AVRs and they found 5.1 downgraded to 2ch.
Has anyone in this forum tried the audio part successfully?
I recently bought an AVR which doenst have HDMI passthru, so trying to see if i can work around thru a HDMI splitter. Basically looking to connect HDMI output to both TV and AVR (I know that i can use optical cable but it doesnt support Dolby Digital plus and DTS Master audio. I know we may not have too many channels that pump out these formats today - just want to future proof if possible).
I am even considering returning my new AVR Pioneer 323K (which is still in transit) and get one with HDMI passthru if the splitters also dont work out.
