Review on πŸ“Ί OREI 4K HDMI Splitter - 1x2 Ports, Full UltraHD 4:4:4 HDR, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.2, 60Hz, EDID Support by Sergey Chodavarapu

Revainrating 1 out of 5

What it lacks in elegance it makes up for by bypassing problematic hardware

I'm using a pair of these to convert the outputs of two camcorders (AG-CX350, XH-A1 via component-to-HDMI converter) to control inputs simultaneously VCR (Atomos Ninja V) and HDMI to NDI encoder (TBS2605) due to a bug in these devices that prevents the Ninja output from being properly captured by the encoder (not sure why) . It does the job. The only thing I don't like about them is that if you can't bypass the hard-coded EDID mode (which emulates a 4K TV) it won't provide any output on output 2 until output 1 is operational. . This device can be greatly improved by adding one or more of the following modes: A. Auto-playback of last known EDID if output device 1 is not already enabled. B. Mode of use of the EDID of the first available output (even if it is not output 1).C. A mode that uses the EDID of the first outlet found and then resets it with the EDID of outlet 1 when outlet 1 appears.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Negative present
