Need help finding a 4K HDMI 2.0a switch for HDR?

Samv0808

Really? I couldnt find anything referencing the new model. Are you able to post a link to the details? Will they be OK to use in the U.K.? Have the right plug?

Nothing online as yet - working (slowly) on a new site and shopping cart.

All supplied with a 3-Pin PSU.

Drop me a note and I'll send you details.

Has anyone tried this: Ligawo ® 3090064 HDR HDMI Switch 5x1 - automatisch 3090064

I just had mine delivered from Amazon today. It's been on preorder for ages.  I so nearly bought the UHD41 mentioned a few posts ago  which looks lovely and a great device but it was just overkill for what I needed and too expensive for my needs.

So far. All seems good with this switch. HDR passed through from my NVIDIA Shield and a Panasonic UHD player. Auto switches when a device is powered on but Also has a remote too. Power cable has no UK plug but it doesn't seem to need any power anyway. Works without it. Not noticed any drop in picture quality and the unit is actually pretty small so not obtrusive.

Really happy with it at the moment

I need one more HDMI Input for a forthcoming PS4 Pro. I read on an American forum that "dumb" switches like this, despite not stating it in the spec, can handle HDR 4K. I've ordered it for the weekend  and will report back after testing it with an XB1S and Sky Q.

Fingers crossed that its a keeper.

It worked! Tested it with the XB1S dashboard & Forza 3, 4K and hdr 4k works perfectly, stable and not a sparkly in site. Not bad for £12.99?

Note - I used the xb1s hdmi cable in and a sky q cable into the TV.

Thanks for this. I have already ordered the Ligawo switch mentioned above, but am still unsure whether it will work - if this does the job that will be great. I need three inputs if possible, I wonder if I can daisychain two of them!

Shame, out of stock at the moment, I am keen to try this out!

I'm not sure if you are ordering the £12.99 one or the Ligawo. If its the cheapy then please note that it works fine with the XB1S & Sky Q boxes but will not pass the full 4K signal from the PS Pro

Thanks Paul. I had already ordered the Ligawo, but was going to order the £12.99 as well.

The PS4 Pro certainly seems to be fussy!
