ViewHD Premium Five Port HDMI 5×1 Powered Switch Ver 1.3 Certified for Full HD 1080P (The Latest & The Best) Review

I use this ViewHD switch with the following devices:
Onkyo Amplifier, Onkyo DVD player, TVIX media player, custom-built HTPC with HDMI port on motherboard, Canon HF11 HD camcorder.
All of these work correctly, without any issues. The unit is small and doesn’t take much space – but keep in mind that Input 1 and power connector is located on the left side and Output on the right side, so you’ll have HDMI plugs on both sides and the width will be more than the unit itself.
Unit has a red Power light which is fairly bright but not unreasonably so. Port lights are blue (active) or red (inactive). The switch automatically switches to lowest numbered port for devices that are On. Remote is small, I only used it once to train my Harmony One universal remote. After adding the switch to corresponding activities on the remote everything was switching without any problems to correct ports.
Overall I’m very happy with this purchase – this switch works well, does exactly what it’s supposed to without any issues, looks good and the price is very reasonable.
