1x4 HDMI splitter, excellent quality, highly recommended!

PRODUCT: AV Access 1x4 HDMI Splitter Comcast/ Xfinity X1 DVR Cablebox4) Sony PS3 "Fat” (backwards compatible) and PS3 "Slim”5) HTPC with GTX 750Ti / ASUS Bluray Optical / Corel Bluray Software6) Sony STR-DA5700ES A/V Receiver TEST METHOD: Total I tested about 16 hours on weekends and an additional 12 hours on weekdays using different versions of HDMI cables with 1.4-2.0 connectors (Revain and Monoprice brands). . OK. The signal looked clear on 4K and 1080P HDTVs, no pixelation and poor picture quality was observed. I've been watching HD content on the Comcast/Xfinity Cablebox, both DVR recorded and live. Picture quality seemed equally good whether or not a splitter was used. As a result, I watch Blu-ray movies and stream HD content from YouTube, Netflix, and Crunchyroll on a custom-built HTPC (Cat7 Wired Ethernet Cable). There were absolutely no problems with image quality. Though I should mention that at some point when I unplugged the PS3 Fat and plugged in the PS3 Slim, the screen went black. But after I switched off the A/V receiver and HDTV (as a precaution) and switched them on again after about 30 seconds, everything worked again. This was the only minor issue I encountered during my testing. Funny, I tried to reproduce the black screen issue by disconnecting the PS3 "Slim" and reconnecting the PS3 "Fat" with the TV and receiver on, but it recognized the device and worked right away. Understand yourself. CONCLUSION: After extensive testing, I consider this HDMI splitter to be a high quality product. It's a good weight, feels solid, has a low profile (so can be easily hidden), works as advertised and I highly recommend this splitter! Also, I received excellent customer service via email when I needed to contact AV Access. If anything else happens, I'll update this product review. Thank you for taking the time to read my review.
