What if both HMDI slots are already taken? :-(
Must this go in the HDMI slot? I have Comcast, which takes up one HDMI, then Roku-which is taking up the other HDMI. I'm thinking of trying Chromecast-which appears to take HMDI (Hence the name! LOL!) My TV has only two HMDI slots, so is there anything I cn do?
Yes, this device does require access to an HDMI slot and works kind of similar to your Roku, but definitely not the same. We had that same problem with only two HDMI slots, and it was a pain to get behind the TV to switch them out as needed, so we bought and HDMI extender cable and now just simply plug-in the needed device without moving or trying to find the slot on the back of the TV. The extension cable sits just on the shelf under the TV and we plug-n-play! And FYI, the Chromecast does also require power when in use, so you will need an available power outlet as well.
