Comments about Kanex HDMI 5x1 HDTV Digital Switcher:
I bought a similar product from a national chain. Took that unit home and hooked it up. It could not read the hdmi feed from my MacBook. Called B & H and explained the problem. In minutes was directed to this product. It works perfectly and seems much more substantial than the national chain product I returned this evening for a refund. Not only that, the B &H product cost a few $$$ less.

I have a Okyno 6 dvd player, a Sony Blu-ray player
a Toshiba HDV-DVD player and a Toshiba Dvd recorder and one Samsung Blu-ray player all hooked up to the HDMI switch. Which by the way switches between each one flawlessly.
Comments about Kanex HDMI 5x1 HDTV Digital Switcher:
Right out of the box the unit works. Does the switching w/ it's own credit card sized remote. Does not degrade the picture at all, but I did notice infrequent drops on my TV Picture. Sometimes, the picture drops out and has to re-booted all over again. I have not determined whether this drop-out is happening because of the switcher or tv reception, but it is somewhat annoying. Other than that, it maybe ok to buy it again.
