My review summary should say it all! Great TV and picture, upgraded to the KES-3500 One Connect and the picture was improved, can't believe it got better! But it did. I can't wait for them to come calibrate this TV. I'll be in heaven for sure!

This is the mount you want! It hangs the TV close to the wall yet allows you easy access to the sides and back to get to those points on the TV to install and uninstall cables, and other connections. Makes it so much easier to dust as well.

 Rocketfish™ - 2-Way HDMI Splitter - Silver
Rocketfish™ - 2-Way HDMI Splitter - Silver
Only @ Best BuyTurn 1 HDMI source into 2 with this Rocketfish™ RF-G1182 splitter that delivers 1080p content, 3D capability, and 5.1/7.1 surround sound to most HDMI components. The included AC adapter ensures reliable power.
 

HDMI splitter is not working with two HDTVs

I have two Isignia tvs. One has resolution of 1080p and the other has the same or 1080i.

It's properly set up; however, only one tv shows video (i have both on and connected). For cable box, I have time warner. I have tried switching the outputs from 1 to 2 for both to see if that would work, but no success.
TW wants their money. They don't allow you to split their signal unless you pay, nice guys! The splitter will allow you to stream video to two TVs from a DVD or Blu Ray player but not from the cable Co.
Sorry.

Confused

I have 1 HDMI hook up left on my TV. I would like to be able to hook up both a PS4 and a Blue Ray player. Is this used for that or do I need something else? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
How many HDMI inputs does it have? Do you own an AVR? It could be used to plug all of your HDMI inputs into.

Unable to locate chromcast siginal on Sony TV

I've used the splitter to add a Chromcast dongle to my Sony TV, but unable to locate a siginal on the TV for the Chromcast. Instructions say to change the "Input settings until you are able to locate" a Chromcast siginal. Have tried changing the antenna, siginal source ( of a limited number of specified stations/channels, and about every other setting I can find with no success. Where can I locate the siginal?
Use as with instead of a splitter. It should work then. You will have to select which product you want to use but you can't use them both at the same time anyway.

Dolby Digital pass through

I am using a splitter to split signal from by fios settop box. One cable goes to my Denon 4520 AVR and the other goes directly to my LG led (42LS5700). I have a cable that goes from my AVR to the TV as well. When using the splitter I get sound but will not pass DD through to AVR. If I connect cable directly from my set top box to AVR I get DD (not using the splitter). Opinions on how to resolve?
I would run everything through the Denon only, with only one HDMI cable going to the TV. To watch TV through the cable box just select the cable input, you don't have to power the Denon on, just use it as a switch. The Denon needs to be in stand-by mode and not completely off. Look in the Denon users manual to find this. Works fine for my AVR which is a Yamaha but that fact doesn't matter.

Hoping to use to connect tv to both Cox box and new Roku

I am using an older sony tv with only one hdmi (kdl-46s2000). I am hoping to hook up both the scientific Atlanta explorer 8240-HDC from cox cable and a new ROKU-3. I bought the Rocketfish 2-way HDMI Splitter and set it up. Right now, I have a roku-1 hooked up but for some reason it only works when it is hooked up with BOTH the hdmi and the av cables. When I remove either connection, the tv doesn't see the ROKU-1. I just received the ROKU-3 as a gift and want to use it instead (it has earbuds). I tried to connect it using only the hdmi and my tv doesn't see it. the Roku-3 doesn't have slots for the av cables.
I would think that you need a switch and not a splitter. A switch is just that, you could use one or the other so the signal would not be split or less of a full signal. I'd give that a try, if it doesn't work, just return the splitter

Getting 3D pass through to work

I have a 3D TV, a 3D DVD Player, a 3D capable Direct TV receiver, and a Denon non 3D AVR. What do I need to be able to watch 3D movies and still use the Denon for surround sound? I bought this 2 way splitter thinking it would split the HDMI Monitor so that I could use the TV for display, but it didn't work. All I got was audio. Do I need a 3 way splitter? A Switcher? I only have one HDMI input going to the TV because it is mounted on the wall and there is only one HDMI outlet on the wall so I am unable to plug any additional HDMI cords into the TV itself. I had it connected through the Denon at one point and was able to see a 3D movie with surround sound, but then I could not get the display to go back to direct TV. All I got was sound. Any ideas? Maybe a 3 way splitter?
You may want to try a powered splitter. Plug the feed into the input and the output to 1) TV, 2) receiver. See if that will work. If not, BB will be fine with you returning it. Ask a salesman in the A/V section and tell them what you are going to try, this way if it doesn't work it will be even easier to return.
You may be loosing the signal because it's not strong enough, that's why you want a powered splitter. Oh yes, it's a Rocketfish model # RF-G1182.
