I put this in AV as well..
I need to be able to send video (+ audio maybe) from things like
laptops, benchtop teaching "visualisers" (VGA or HDMI out), DSLR cameras(several HDMI connector variants)
to
Fixed school-type screens with VGA inputs
and eg TVs with HDMI inputs.
There could be more than one source (perhaps 3-4), but only one output at a time.
I see <$5 vga switches on ebay - are they OK, when there are others much more expensive?
Do they need to be powered?
Also there are HMDI to VGA leads - don't they need power, or do they take enough fromthe connector?
I understand the various HDMI -HDMI connectors just need simple adapters?
I'm guessing I'd need two boxes, one with VGA out and one for HDMI out.
Anyone been round the loops?
