What is an HDMI splitter?
An HDMI splitter is a device used to distribute a single HDMI source to multiple displays. It is usually designed with an HDMI input port and multiple HDMI output ports, like 1×2, 1×4. You can connect an HDMI source, like a cable box, DVD player, PC to it via its HDMI input port, then connect multiple displays to it via its HDMI output ports.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2018Color: 1x2Verified PurchaseUsed this to convert the HDMI output of a Playstation TV (PSTV) into VGA, so I could remotely play a PS4 on an old monitor (yes, really). This box removes the HDCP from the HDMI and then I had a separate cheap HDMI to VGA cable that would also split out the audio to a 3.5mm headphone jack. At first I tested this with my not-old TV through its 'Computer' VGA input port, but I was getting a blank screen and I was worried I had gotten a 'newer' model that doesn't work with HDCP as many reviewers have been complaining about. I could plug my laptop or a RaspberryPi into the splitter and it would work fine but the PSTV or Xbox360 were a no go (because of the HDCP issues apparently). Unplugged / replugged / turned it off and on again / used different cables but nothing seemed to work and I was getting ready to write up my bad review. As a last ditch effort, I plugged the VGA cord into the old computer monitor and everything immediately started working. Without this splitter, the simple HDMI to VGA cable did not work with the monitor as expected, so this splitter does seem like it's stripping out the HDCP, it just didn't seem like it at first when I used it with my TV. Its hard to draw conclusions since I have a complicated setup and I don't know how exactly these splitters and converters work, but perhaps there are certain TVs / monitors that simply won't work with this device for whatever reason. My recommendation if you're having problems with HDCP is to try it on another TV/monitor and perhaps you'll have better luck. If that doesn't work out, at least this device is cheap and it was worth giving it a shot.
Bonus: My HDMI to VGA cable also has a micro USB power connector on it and I was bummed that I would need so many power cords for my setup (separate cords for the PSTV, splitter, and HDMI to VGA cable). I discovered though that when I power my HDMI to VGA cable via USB, somehow it also sends power to this splitter through the HDMI cable, thus I don't need the splitter to be plugged into power at all (all the LEDs light up and everything). And, when I connect the USB cord to the PSTV, the PSTV will only supply power when it is on. In short, when I have the PSTV off, it powers down everything, when I turn the PSTV on, everything powers on. It's magic how that all worked out. Long term reliability of the setup is TBD, but so far it's been reliable and it's nice not having this splitter plugged into the wall, taking up a socket, and 'on' indefinitely. I'll update the review if any issues crop up but so far I'm really happy with how it all turned out.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2024Color: 1x2Verified PurchaseIf you're like me, you're probably looking for an HDMI splitter that you can daisy chain to your PS3 to bypass that pesky HDCP that prevents your capture card from working. After unboxing and setting it up, I'm confident to say that it works really well with OBS, no hiccups or anything! The setup goes PS3, HDMI cord, splitter's HDMI in port (any, I just used port 1), splitter's HDMI out port, a second HDMI cord, into the capture card's HDMI in port. My PS3 is a CECHK01 fat model, but chances are that mileage will vary. Later PS3 models may have different HDCP protocols so I cannot guarantee if it will work with later PS3 models, but in my case, I am a happy man!
Hope this helps for anybody looking for a way to stream PS3 gameplay to your friends!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2014Color: 1x2Verified PurchaseI have read several reviews of the ViewHD splitter on the internet, but after trying a different brand of HDMI splitter (http://www.amazon.com/splitter-ports-swither-XBOX360-Blu-ray-Xbox/dp/B003UYOEMI/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top) which did not work properly I was a bit skeptical. I am using my for a bit of an unusual situation, and I want to share how I am using the ViewHD splitter in case anyone else is trying to accomplish the same thing. I have Time-Warner Cable, and I utilize a Ceton InfiniTV 6 cablecard adapter that allows me to save TV shows on my computer (like a DVR only with much more hard drive space and it records up to six shows recording at once - a great product by the way) but allowed me to eliminate my monthly DVR rental fee. Unfortunately Time-Warner Cable designates just about all of their channels as copy-once. What that means is that you cannot view the files other than from the computer onto which they were originally recorded, and you cannot convert the files on the computer to a different format in order to then put them on an iPad, Kindle, or smart phone (e.g. for long car trips or airplane trips for our children) or to save them if you have to change your computer's hardware. Other cable companies (Verizon Fios, Comcast) do not have this restriction, but I cannot get those where I live. I have a Hauppauge Colossus recording device, and I used to record TV shows off of our Time-Warner DVR box through the component output. But now that I no longer have the Time-Warner DVR box and just have the Ceton InfiniTV with a cablecard, I do not have component output as an option. What I was intending to use the splitter for was to strip the HDCP from the WTV files so that I could re-record shows from one computer back to another computer in a different format so that I could then convert them to mp4 files and use them on our iPad or be able to watch them on a different computer on my home network. The previously mentioned 1X2 HDMI splitter was unable to accomplish this. But with the ViewHD splitter I was able to do exactly what I had set out to do. I have an HDMI cable going from my HTPC to the ViewHD input port. I have another HDMI cable going from the ViewHD 1 output port to my TV. That works great for watching shows recorded on the HTPC. When I want to record the show to another computer in a different format, I run another HDMI cable from the ViewHD 2 output port into the Hauppauge Colossus HDMI input port and...voila! It works perfectly! I can now save these shows onto another computer in .TS, mp4, or M2TS formats. From there I can convert them to any other format if necessary and/or edit them (e.g. taking out the commercials - for which I use VideoReDo software - another great product, by the way.) So, all in all, this ViewHD HDMI splitter works perfectly and produces two identical high-definition signals from one HDMI source. And for the price you cannot beat it!
ADDENDUM (07/06/2014) - I also have now run the HDMI output from my computer to the ViewHD splitter and then run one HDMI output cable to my monitor and the second HDMI output cable back into the Hauppauge Colossus on the same computer. With a little bit of trial and error with the speakers I am now able to record back into the same computer instead of having to run a longer HDMI cable from one computer to another. This box is fantastic!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2024Color: 1x2Verified PurchaseHey Everyone! Can confirm at the time of writing this (Dec 2024) it 100% does bypass HDCP. Just tested it on my PS3. Great little device!
