What does the button on the top of the splitter do? Does it shut off the splitter, mute one of the monitors, or something else?

The button on the top of the splitter is solely for power on or off. There is no selective switch on the splitter.

This splitter is best used to split an incoming single HDMI signal outto multiple monitors. It sounds like you are trying to send theverizon signal to the TV and the Blue Ray Signal to the TV as well.That connection will require two seperate inputs as you will mostlikely need to select which input to use when viewing TV vs Blue Ray.I hope this helps. It's the best I could come up with from the info inyour question.

it will be two separate outputs working one at a time. An example us using computer on one medium sized monitor and switching to large monitor to watch Hulu from computer. Hope thus helps.

You can use the cable remote and i guess you can always buy the universal remote to make it work,There is a button under the tv/monitor that shuts it off and does a couple of other things, hope this helps

This is a splitter, not a switch.For two computers to a single monitor, you need a switch.

I use this unit to split my cable box HDMI output which them feeds my Sony Receiver and two other Devices. I have found the splitter only works if all the other devices are on. If any one of them is turned off, the splitter won't pass the sound portion of the HDMI signal. I don't think this anything to do with the make of the components.

You can't disable it per se, but you can connect another monitor and force the display adapter to use it. Go to /Control Panel/, click on /Display/, click on /Change Display Settings/, on the /Multiple Displays/ line, click the little down arrow and click on /Show Desktop 2 only/. You'll always boot to the newly connected display.

I haven't found one, all of my other remotes get picked up by the splitter. I covered the IR sensor on the splitter and just get up to change inputs, it's a little inconvenient but I was having to get up anyway when another remote changed it. Any help would be appreciated if someone else has figured it out.

I have only used the splitter to split the image coming from a desktop and take it to a monitor and an interactive white board or something similar. Some laptops graphics cards interact really differently. Try checking your graphics settings and see if you can clone your monitor image. If that doesn't work you may have to choose to go to the CRT display on your keyboard function key which may blackout your laptop screen.

I have had the monitor for 2 weeks, but it is used constantly. I frequently attach or separate it from different PCs, and it has been both shut off completely--or simply allowed to hibernate. I have not experienced this problem of the audio failing to switch on with the monitor. I suspect that the monitor is choosing the wrong audio input and perhaps decoupling it from your video signal. Are you using HDMI (for both video & audio), or do you have a separate audio signal input? My guess is that if you use VGA, you should avoid leaving any source plugged into the HDMI port. Likewise, if you are using HDMI, use a newer cable that supports audio and disconnect the audio input at the back of the monitor. Does any of this make sense? Did it help?

I had the same problem and it is the result of plugging more than one source of output at the same time. In other words, if you want to use your TV, you have to disconnect your monitor and just use one at a time. The same goes for the cables, only one cable plugged to the device at a time. I hope that helps you.

No, the splitter does not work as it is addressed. I wasted my time and money on this and purchased a 50 foot hdmi cable that I now cannot use. I would look elsewhere to solve your splitter problem.

You need a HDMI splitter, not this which is a switcher. A splitter splits the signal to two (or more) monitors/TVs/projectors, so all work simultaneously.

That cannot be done - the signaling direction cannot be reversed. An example of how this device is intended to be used is for someone who has several computers and wants to switch viewing each of those separate outputs on their one monitor (one at a time) - that way you would not have to set up 2 or 3 monitors for your 2 or 3 computers. What it sounds like you want is an HDMI splitter - that would allow one computer, or one cable TV signal box, to send out its one signal and you then view it on your TV and your monitor all at the same time. Switches switch between inputs (viewing only one at a time), splitters split outputs (viewing all at once) - and to the best of my knowledge nobody has invented anything that can flip back and forth and do both of these jobs using one device!

It turns two hdmi inputs into a single input. It has a selector on the device that let's you switch between input 1 and input 2. So it's not technically a splitter since you have to manually switch from one device to another. Easy to use though, I enjoy it.

Yes, I have done this many times with this unit. There is no need to shut down the splitter to do this.

The awnser button on the mic doubles as a mute button. It also stops/starts music and such.
