Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of OPPO HM-31 Advanced HDMI 1.3 and 1080p Switch
Customer Review: Set it & forget it...
Summary: 5 Stars
After setting my HT system I ran into a huge problem. I hooked up all my HDMI devices to my Yamaha receiver with the HDMI output of the receiver connected to the projector. However, when playing HD discs on the computer I would get an error "Your device is an HDMI repeater...". Connecting the PC directly to the projector avoided this issue. But, that meant that I'd to have one HDMI connection directly from the PC to the projector, a optical audio output for PC audio to the receiver, & another HDMI connection from the receiver to the projector (for everything else).
Amazingly, this one OPPO device changed all that! Now, I have both the PC & the receiver connected to the OPPO & a single HDMI going to the projector. The remote for OPPO is really redundant b/c it automatically switches when it detects an input signal. This device is highly recommended.
Customer Review: So far, so great
Summary: 5 Stars
I received mine just yesterday, so I will update the review if something goes wrong -
When you open up the box, you'll immediately see the difference in the workmanship of the product - this is a good looking piece that will match well with any home system, should you choose to leave it out (it is small enough to place behind a cabinet or the TV). Once out of the box, it is a snap to hookup: One HDMI cable from the TV to the Output, and then 1 HDMI for each component being used to the three inputs. It literally took me less then 10 minutes to hookup my TV to the Directv and my Sony Blu-ray. I also have a Harmony Remote which I programmed (although I may have not needed it due to the system default). It worked right away with no handshake issues or noticeable loss of picture quality. I will post back in a week after use -
Customer Review: It's An Absolute Must Have ... Sleek HDMI Switch!
Summary: 5 Stars
- All the important Features have already been described very well. I have been VERY IMPRESSED with the OPPO Product lines, and this one does not disappoint.
I haven't found anything that WORKS so Impressively!
I gave it a 4.8 Star Rating as the only little issue is the AC Plug-in to the unit, is a bit 'flimsy' and just slightly moving the Small, Sleek, Book-Guide Sized Switch, makes the switch re-boot.
I am following-up with OPPO tech support, on this small issue.
Other than that, it's an ABSOLUTE MUST HAVE, Hands-Down, as part of your HDMI Home Theater Arsenal. It simply 'switches' Automatically between whatever HDMI DEVICES (Blu-ray player and HD Cable Modem for me), without any Video or Sound LOSS ... that' so COOOOOL!
Up to 3 HDMI devices (Inputs) + 1 HDMI (out-put) to your HDTV.
Customer Review: The First switch that actualy works with HDCP as advertised
Summary: 5 Stars
This unit works exactly as advertised with NO compatability issues with HDCP or HDMI to DVI cables. I had previously bought 2 other HDMI switches to use with my Samsung HLN-567W DVI input DLP TV that did not work with the HDCP. They were both advertised to be HDCP compliant and had several reviews that said other users had success.
As noted in other reviews of the OPPO HDMI switch it works perfectly with the Motorola HD DVR that Verizon FIOS and Comcast provide. I recently bought a Sony Blue Ray player and wanted to use the HDMI output since that's the only way it will upconvert standard DVD's. My TV only has one DVI input so this switch fit the bill and works perfectly. Unlike other switches the LED's on this unit are not to bright so they are not distracting during dim room movie watching.
Customer Review: OPPO HM-31 HDMI Switch
Summary: 5 Stars
I was in need of an HDMI switch that was reliable and accurate. I wanted to make sure that I did not lose picture quality during switch transmission and that the switch would be smart enough to prioritize my devices appropriately. This product did just that and I am very pleased with the results thus far. While I initially thought the price was a bit more than I was willing to pay for a switch I am happy that I made this decision. I performed some research, read blogs, and reveiewed the products on cnet and all conclusions led to the same which was the purchase of this product. The product looks sharp, no loss of picture quality, stunning/sharp images, and it prioritizes the signals with accuracy based on the device connections. I am sure any other customer will be happy with the results as I have.
