Ok, riddle me this, oh great guru's uv da forum...
Have a TV with two HDMI in ports. (worked fine for years)
One port (HDMI 1) getting shaky. That is, cutting out, clipping, whatever u wanna call it. Have to wiggle the cable to get it back working.
Now, I obviously need two ports One for tv (from main tv), one for monitor. (HDMI 2 works fine for monitor)
Got a switch. Plugged into hdmi 2. Nope. No video at all. Selecting either cable on the switch does nothing video wise. I can select source with the remote but hdmi 2 doesn't even show up with it plugged in.
Since both are marked "input" For the tv side I'm assuming I need a 2 (or more) in ports and instead of an out port... another in port "instead" of the outport. However, doesn't seem to be any such animal.
Or am I just completely insane? (hmm... just answered my own question on that last sentence)
