Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The metal body is superb build quality, as well. As advertised and well made. Nice sleek package.

Even cheap, for the functionality, as the other options required replacing existing (older) high end av components. The pi's technical support is top notch. It took 5 minutes of setup.

This thing is highly recommendable. If you just need a simple downscaler without worrying or caring about hdr, this does exactly what you need it to.

Hdmi splitter passes through the 4k60hdr signal flawlessly to my tv, and smartly downsamples to 1080p60 to my hd60s. Using this splitter, i place it on the output of my denon receiver hdmi port going to my projector.

K apple tv and focal sound bar / sub. No issues when turning them on or off and no more resetting of the splitter. No noticeable loss in signal quality for either tv. Focal sound bar has just enough for my current setup.



Cons

All dip switch settings were set to zero to match my shield's 4k 60hz spec. On the tv's that are working well, it takes about 45 seconds for the screen to go from totally black to having a picture, this drives my wife crazy.

Price


I'm very impressed, especially considering the price.


This 1-4 splitter unit costs a bit more but it works perfectly!

I reached out to them and was surprised as to how quickly they responded to me.

Packaging/appearance


(the box is small, and is intended to be hidden behind the cabinet) but, i ended up liking them, as they are clear indicator if...  Read More


The cable box has no idea there is more than 1 tv hooked up and the signal displayed on all the tv's is the optimum signal for that tv.

Competitiveness


(nothing against gofanco, this product helped me out and i'm sure it has a lot of uses for other consumers, for me it was an ex...  Read More


I tried several mux by other oem's and found this to be the best one.


This fooled vudu to send 4k + atmos to gofanco splitter and since the splitter and lumagen both pass through atmos, i was ultim...  Read More

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I wanted to split off the hd audio to my non4k receiver


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Unfortunately it didnt work immediately because of my fumbling around


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It doesnt everything it says it does with ease


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However there is a small issue with it if you are wanting to retain the hdr quality when viewing something in 4k and are looking to capture footage in 1080p for streaming on twitch or youtube from your ps4 or xbox one


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When using hdr the 1080p downscaled signal retains its hdr feature which is not able to be properly captured by most capture cards as they do not support an hdr signal


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It leaves the image washed out with a lot of blue missing from the image and basically looking very dull
