What switchers are you using? I'm looking for a decent one with lots of inputs, that has IR control, so it can be universal remote'd. Any suggestions? And/or, should I not bother with the IR control. |
| scott:
Are you looking for HDMI, Component, or Composite/Svideo? I use a cheap GameStop branded Composite hub with 4 ports on it, that Matt gave me years ago. It works pretty nice, but you have to press buttons on top of it to change inputs. That's not a huge deal though, cause none of the consoles that are hooked up to it can be turned on/off remotely anyway. |

Hm, that's a solid point about having to turn the consoles on manually. I'm looking for: 4 Svideo 3 Component 1 composite and 5 HDMI. But I will probably get a separate switcher for HDMI. |

the only AV switches I've used have been for composite the only IR AV switch I used was from Intec and I would not recommend that one at all I was Constantly noticing problems with the Video Feed. since then I've just been using a basic AV switch from GE. |

For composite/S-video I use two of these http://www.walmart.com/ip/RCA-4-Way-AV-Switcher-With-S-Video/3312963 daisy chained together which gives me a total of seven CVBS/S-video inputs. A good thing about these is that they don't have any of the jacks on the front of it like so many do. For component I just use two of these cheap switches which you can get on ebay/amazon for a couple bucks each. One for the component video signal the other for audio. |
