FeinTech VSW04202 HDMI 2.0 Switch 4x1 HD Audio Extractor 7.1 Dolby Atmos 4K 60Hz HDR CEC

Excellent build quality and exceptionally easy to setup and use. I am using the inputs for XBox Series S, PS4 Pro, Amazon Fire Stick 4K and a Media PC, the video output is going to a Dell S3220DGF and the audio HDMI is going to a Yamaha AV receiver, all works with no hassle. Used this to replace the unnecessarily complex HDFury Arcana, which was sent back.

First, the good news. This is a solidly built unit with features that would normally cost a lot more money. And when it's working, it stays working. I've tested with HDR10, but my monitor doesn't support Dolby Vision so can't answer for that.I've knocked it down to four stars because it's temperamental when other equipment is coming out of standby. Once my PC has gone to sleep and wakes up, the monitor doesn't see the signal until I turn the FeinTech switch off and on again. But when I do that the PC sees the monitor as only 1080P instead of 4k, so I have to unplug the cable at the PC end. At that point everything agrees that I have a 4k monitor and the PC is running, and life is good.From the other end sometimes after standby my monitor decides the FeinTech switch doesn't support ARC, Solution, unsurprisingly, turn it off and on again. All of this means I can't hide the switch away, as I need regular access to the physical power switch.(Also, it came with a European power plug and needed an adapter for UK mains. I already had some of those, so not a problem for me).

No UK plug. Frustrating. Need to buy another plug to test it now

Even though it says it does, tried with a Firestick 4K and a Google Chromecast with Google TV, it doesn't pass Dolby vision or Atmos through the ARC connection (not tried the audio only port) so disappointed. Feels well made but it doesn't work for me.

It didnt pass any audio to my Sonos Beam.it seems well made but rather expensive for a HMDI Switch so returned.The model up seems to work with Sonos but it isnt available on amazon / in the uk currently

Arrived with only an Eu plug, not acceptable in a product supplied in the UK.

I am using this device for its intended purpose of splitting the hdmi audio and sending it to a receiver HDMI input. The receiver is older and does not support HDMI 2.0 (dolby vision, HDR, etc). The HDMI out of a 4k bluray player is connected to input 1, the main output is connected to a 77" LG OLED (C1) and the "audio" HDM is connected to the BD HDMI input on a pioneer SC-97 receiver. Using it in "Pass" mode for the audio format. When I play a movie with a DTS-HD track, the audio is sent to the receiver but the audio is dropped every 10-15 seconds making it unusable. Other formats (DD Plus, True HD, Atmos) work fine. The hdmi cables are 8k certified.

The functionality that this switch offers is very good. It allows four units to be connected to a TV and amplifier or sound bar without hdr support or enough hdmi ports. It also supports CEC to the TV. But since it does not support CEC to the sound bar or amplifier, it is not compatible with non-technical people, who don’t understand the concepts of inputs and volume control. Also it is less practical for the rest of us. So, it sits unused. My TV is an LG B8 with a Yamaha YSP-5600 sound bar.
