I find myself needing to connect several video sources (one at a time) to a projector.
In the past, one source was HDMI, which I adapted to the DVI input, and a PC which had a 15 pin D connector to the other input. Now I have 2 or possibly 3 HDMI sources to deal with.
I see on eBay a number of possibilities from a simple 3 way switch to 4x2 matrix switches. One even had audio outputs which in my application could save me running separate audio from each source.
Of course, given my lack of knowledge in this area, the cheap prices I see make me wary though I don't want to spend large on this one shot event.
So, advice and suggestions?
One source is a satellite receiver 120' away via a powered HDMI cable, and another is a MacBook pro with a HDMI dongal (unless they use an older one with DVI out).
