There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Was trying to get 4K streaming to work on my TV using an Amazon Fire TV through my receiver, and HDMI extender. The 1080P worked fine, but when the Fire TV wanted to stream 4K, it required HDCP 2.2. No luck with the old receiver, which was HDCP 1.4. I wasn't about to spend another $2K just for HDCP 2.2.
I tried solving my problem with a better extender which offered ARC, and then streaming through my TV, with the audio going back through my HDMI extender's ARC return. That dint work out. It either didn't work at all, or only got 2 channels. What pain!!! HOURS of troubleshooting.
I thought, there must be a way to strip out the HDCP 2.2. Well, that's not "legal" per DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act). So all those devices are either on the black market, or hard to find, or can't advertise they strip the HDCP. So rather than buy and test many of them, I found this! It doesn't circumvent the copy protection, it just downgrades it! SO Useful! And SOLVED my problem. At apparently legal!
I can now use my Amazon Fire TV 4K, connected through this device, then to receiver, HDMI Extender, to the TV. Works perfectly so far.
Word of warning though, at first, I had white sparkles with the image, and then also audio issues. Turned out it was an HDMI cable that was not good enough. The cable was advertised as 100% compliant with 4K and 18gbps, but guess not. So if you have issues with this, try swapping out some HDMI cables. Also, try connecting things with as few components as possible, get it to work, then try additional components till you get the whole chain working.
Consumer electronics suck. I mostly blame content protection. HDMI is always a pain, as there's no feedback on what the problem is, it's constant guess and check. This little box, though, solves the problem it's described to solve. A+!
The 4K30Hz port works fine.
