I like how the product info mentions (I assume after the fact) how you can't do PC -> TV after someone tried.

The fact is, you won't be able to connect ANYTHING to ANYTHING with this cable. It's a POS that won't work. HDMI=DIGITAL, COMPONENT=ANALOG. Without a power source and a circuit board to convert the DIGITAL signal to ANALOG, well guess that, IT WON'T WORK. This cable is a FAKE. Don't waste your money!

I purchased this so that I could use my video game consoles without buying a TV. It's a perfect fit. I was tired of using old CRT TV's (the bulky glass-screens) whose low resolutions really ruined some modern titles. For instance, in a lot of newer games I had a hard time reading text on my old TV, even close to the screen - it just didn't have the resolution. Not only is this converter cheaper than many others, it performs flawlessly. With my 3-year-old run-of-the-mill Acer AL1916W widescreen LCD monitor I can use my Xbox 360 in 1080p with no problems whatsoever. It is GORGEOUS, and makes me wish I had done it a lot sooner. If you have a system that doesn't have component cables (like a PS2 or Wii), the cables are very cheap here on Amazon, too.

GE 22784 Ultra ProGrade A to A Flat HDMI Cable (25 Feet) Review

GE 22784 Ultra ProGrade A to A Flat HDMI Cable
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
After first seeing the cables unlimited ultraflat hdmi cables (which top out at 15 feet), I was disappointed to find this cable so thick and so stiff.I wanted to run it under the rug from one end of the living room to the other, but it is so stiff between the rug and the pc and between the rug and the monitor that it seems "in the way" and it is thick enough for me to feel it under our somewhat thin carpet.

However, in its defense, I suspect an ultraflat would lower the quality of the signal at 25 feet, otherwise CU would have made a longer one, so I cannot really complain.Wishful thinking on my part should not cost the review of this product a star.

It is a flat cable; it appears to be well made, and it works as advertised

It has been noted elsewhere for other flat cables to be aware that if you have to make a turn under carpet, you will have a bulge because flat cables just do not bend that way (unlike round cables).It is perfect for a straight run.

I have minimized the "in the way" feeling by simply using Cables Unlimited ADP-3785 HDMI Female to Female Coupler and AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI Cable (6.5 Feet/2.0 Meters) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging] to connect it to my monitor.Now my HTPC is behind the TV and I can use it as a computer with sound from the other side of the living room without having to deal with any wireless headaches or costs.

This connector works well, but is easily lost. Some optical cables come with an end cover that is attached to the cable to prevent loss. That would be a nice addition for minimal cost increase.

I bought this cable to connect my Playstation 3 to an HDTV set that has only DVI (I think it's DVI-I) but no HDMI.This cable works beautifully.Image quality is really good.The price just can't be beat.

You should be aware that while HDMI carries both audio and video, DVI is video only, so you still need to route the audio to your TV somehow.For example, I use an optical digital audio cable to do that (together with an expensive converter box as my old HDTV set doesn't have an optical input).

Accell K078C-002B UltraAV 1x2 HDMI 1.3 Splitter Review

I bought 2 of these at the same time. After 8 months, the output on one of them died. I called Accell Cables and talked to their customer service person, Louisa Hwang. She insisted that it worked and told me that my cables were the problem. She had me do 12 configurations using it and different cables, 2 different DVD players and 2 different TVs. Clearly, this was an attempt to make it so difficult I would just go away. It took me all day to rewire my systems to test this in all the combinations required by Accell but I did it and verified that the one port just doesn't work. I repeated the same tests with the other Accell splitter and it worked perfectly every time. Obviously, the one splitter is defective. I reported this to Louisa Hwang and she sent me a form to fill out to get an RMA number, I did it and got an RMA number. I shipped it back to them and a two weeks later received a shipment from Accell. Inside was the very same splitter I shipped them without any explanation other than the words "passed all test parameters" on the shipping invoice. I plugged it into my system and it didn't work, of course, because it's broken. It fails 100% of the time for me. It would have been impossible for them to test this even once and not see that it's broken.

They are refusing to replace it. What do they think I'm doing? Running a scam where I order splitters, pay to send a working one back just to get a replacement? Do they think I have some crazy setup that no one else in the world has? I have two Accell splitters and one works fine in the very same setup. Clearly, one doesn't work but they refuse to stand by their product.

Terrible customer service, terrible product, terrible company.

TosLink 1 x 2 Optical Audio Splitter Adapter Review

TosLink 1 x 2 Optical Audio Splitter Adapter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was very skeptical when buying this spliiter/switch after seeing so many bad reviews. It worked for me after little trial and error and here is what I found. For all those who complained that these splitters/switches do not work, this is what you need to do to get it right. I bought this splitter from eforcity, so I cannot say about those shipped by other sellers.... It works both ways i.e. as a splitter and as a switch.

1. For it to act as a switch, the critical thing is that only one source needs to be ON. Some sources send signal even when on stand by mode. To check whether it sends out signal, just plug one end of the toslink cable into port of the source(cable box, ps3, etc) and check the other end for red light. when on stand by, the light should not be lit.

2. The second most important thing for this splitter/switch to work is the length of the cables used. I used all 1.5 ft cables and they work perfectly. Earlier I had 3 ft cables coming out of the cable box and ps3 to the splitter and then 1.5 ft cable to the home theater. The ps3 did not work but cable box worked (not consistently though) as the signal attenuated too much by the time it reached the home theater receiver. I am not sure if there is a shorter cable than 1.5 ft and it would be great if you do have them. 1.5 ft cables work fine. I got the 1.5 ft cables from RiteAV.

Finally, the basic test to see if it works is to check for the red light after the connections. Connect in the way shown below and check for the light near the * before connecting to the receiver. Make sure only one source is ON at a time. If you see light and it still does not work after plugging into the receiver then it means that the signal attenuated too much and your receiver cannot pick it.

source 1 -->
...................splitter -->* receiver
source 2 -->

--> = 1.5 ft toslink cable
ignore the dots...

Good luck!.
