BlueRigger HDMI CEC Less Adapter (4K UHD, ARC, HDMI CEC Blocker)

So far so good after approximately three weeks of using this with my fire TV stick plugged into it and plugged into my 65 inch OLEDLG TV. The TV is working properly with my Bose 900 system. The issue prior to this is that the sound battle between the TV sound bar and fire stick was so frustrating. If you are dealing with this particular issue, consider giving this a try. Right now everything appears to be working after approximately three weeks of use, but prior to this it was Technology nightmare. Attempted every setting option from Bose app to TV settings to fire stick settings with no luck. Very pleased so far.

I have more than one CEC device connected to a Sony OLED Tv. Was having problems with ears until I inserted this into the secondary CEC device HDMI path. Fixed all my issues by breaking the power pin on the secondary device signal. Highly recommended.

I have everything tied into my AV system, AppleTV, blu-ray player, PlayStation, laserdisc player, and yes, even my desktop computer. Most everything works fine without any hiccups except one major annoyance. If I bump, breathe on, or even slightly warm my trackpad with my body heat, the CEC will switch everything over to the computer and I have to wait a full minute before switching back to what ever I was watching/playing. I can’t toggle off CEC on the computer, I can turn it off on the receiver but that means I’m back to using four different remotes.That’s where this sturdy little adapter comes in. I plug it into the HDMI out of the desktop and run the regular cord into the HDMI from it to the receiver, and bingo! No more accidental wakes from looking at the trackpad wrong or if on of the cats steps on the keyboard. It’s a simple thing but it saved me from a huge headache. I haven’t seen any detriment to audio or video. Everything comes through just as it did before but without the CEC controls.So if you have a device or two that is causing you grief with their over zealous CEC protocols, pick up some of these handy adapters. I have some extras on hand for any future problems.

I purchased this adapter to attempt to resolve a connection problem between an OREI multiviewer and the HDMI4 port on my OneConnect box for my Samsung TV. It did not work. My issue with BlueRigger is that they offer a support option to schedule 30 minutes by phone. I did so and blocked out the designated time on my calendar. They did not contact me at that time nor did they respond to my follow-up email regarding the no-show by their support.

Purchased to solve recurring issue with Roku HDMI/HDPC error. Seemed to work for several weeks, it still occurs occxasionally.

Does what it says. I bought videogame hardware from a smaller company prone to engaging HDMI CEC like crazy, per other people, so I picked this up with it, and have never had a problem. Looking to buy my second for a similar device.

Nice quick shipping delivery. This product did what it is supposed to do. I now got my Roku box connect to my soundbar and TV like it should be.

Works Good except every time the PC starts up the Speaker ICON on the Bottom Right of Windows has an X over it and there is no Sound. I have to open up device manager and scan for hardware changes and this removes the X over the Speaker Icon. Searching for drivers doesn't work. I have to Scan for Hardware changes every time I restart or turn off the PC and turn in back on. It fixed the Issue with the TV sound issues but created this issue as well..

Fonctionne très bien

Good quality. Able to upscale the picture with 3D. Not suitable for all devices. A good choice for anyone who has a reputed device.

This adapter is a life saver. My TV Box now no longer interferes with AV receiver’s audio from the TV over HDMI ARC.Earlier, I accidentally discovered that the Sony Bravia’s audio worked with Yamaha 7.2 AV receiver only with the TV Box disconnected. The TV box’s HDMI CEC feature was supposedly causing the ARC “handshake” between TV, AV receiver and TV Box to malfunction. There was no audio from AV receiver.While searching on google, I came across a blog that pointed to this CEC-less HDMI adapter. Realizing the root cause of the problem, I was certain this adapter would do the job. I ordered this a week ago and it arrived today in Dubai. I tested connections this evening and all works perfectly now. I am so happy.This adapter can connect to the TV-end or the TV box-end of the HDMI cable. It doesn’t matter. Make sure you first determine what device is causing the problem and then use this adapter to block CEC signal on that particular HDMI device and cable.

My Samsung Q870A/XY soundbar has worked with my Samsung TU8000 TV for a long time without issue. Have always used the eARC function so I can control soundbar, TV and NVIDIA Shield Pro using the Shield (or Samsung TV) controller. For some reason that eARC / CEC functionality suddenly stopped working and my Samsung TV no longer recognised by Samsung soundbar. Perhaps it was a firmware update on one of the two devices, HDMI handshake issues or a device introduced a CEC conflict?After much painful power cycling, HDMI cable testing, HDMI cable swapping, general diagnostics and forum trawling I worked out what the issue was. If only the soundbar was connected by HDMI to the TV eARC HDMI port then soundbar and TV worked. As soon as any other device was connected to HDMI 1 or HDMI 3 (the non eARC spare inputs on my TV) the soundbar would drop off and wouldn’t be ‘seen’ by the TV.That’s when I learned about my new nemesis: PIN 13 in HDMI causing issues with unwanted CEC signals. Yes, as described on some websites you could get some pliers and a magnifying glass out to prise out the offending pin on one of your cables, or you could carefully tape over pin 13 with electrical tape. Realistically though, why would you risk messing up thousands of dollars worth of equipment in lieu of testing a $14 delivered solution with free returns?Anyway, I bought 2 of these for the 2 non-eARC HDMI inputs on my TV and everything worked immediately. I now have my Switch and PS4 rigged up with the soundbar fully working on all sources with Atmos.Why Samsung and other AV companies don’t suggest testing CEC-less adapters as part of the troubleshooting process is beyond me.I don’t normally bother leaving reviews, but this problem was ‘doing my head in’ so I’m leaving as much detail as possible to help anyone else in a similar boat. I’d say if most of the above sounds familiar to you (even with different branded equipment) then this device could well be the solution you’re looking for.Good luck!
