Hi All

 

Has anyone come up with an integrated way to get 2 x HDMI sources into the the single HDMI socket on the BV8?

 

I presume the HDMI expander is not supported on this model?


Thanks

Warren

I take it from the lack of replie nobody has come up with a solution for this?

A HDMI-switch should do the job.

That's true... However I would lose the ability to use the puc to control both sources if the bv8 is unaware of the switch

That's also true, but I think there is no other solution, a HDMI expander is not supported by BV 8-32.

Unfortunately that's a downside of the BV 8-32. I use an HDMI switcher and have to use 2 remotes. However, if one of your sources has component video output you could use that and program the PUC to use only one remote, but you probably already thought of that.
