BlueRigger HDMI CEC Less Adapter (4K UHD, ARC, Ethernet, Male to Female CEC Blocker) - Compatible with HDTV, TV Stick, Chromecast, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PS5, PC, Soundbar

I have a GMKTEK K6 that is plugged into my TCL QM851 TV. My CEC wasn't working. I unplugged everything and started to build it out... TV+Soundbar = CEC worked; TV+Soundbar+Shield = CEC worked. TV+Soundbar+Shield+Mini PC = CEC didn't work.It turns out the MiniPC was putting a load on the HDMI pin 13 -- interfering with CEC devices. This solution blocks pin 13... so I plugged the adapter into the HDMI cable going to the mini PC. Now the whole TV, soundbar, Shield and MiniPC work great.Important to note: The MiniPC is at 4K 120Hz...this adapter passes the 4k 120Hz perfectly... for higher refresh rate gaming.

After Sony and Bose, did an update my sound bar was flipping speakers. Sony customer service suggested one of these. I got two and works wonderfully so far. Follow the directions and all is great.

Had a tech issue where running my Sony 4K player and PS5 through an HDMI switch box would cause my Samsung soundbar to switch from eARC to HDMI source. After countless online searches, it turned out CEC was the source of my problems. This adapter is the perfect workaround to that problem. Both external devices now work flawlessly.

Simple and just works. I upgraded my classic Roku Streaming Stick+ to a new Streaming Stick 4k as the new sticks have much better WiFi performance. Problem is, Roku added some unnecessary smarts to the new stick. With the old stick, I turned on my TV, and the Roku and my Bose soundbar all came on together. The new 4k stick broke that, and my soundbar wouldn't power on automatically anymore. I added this to block the CEC signals from the new Roku stick, and all is good again.

Worker as intended. It blocks a CEC. Ended up returning it since it did not resolve my Samsung Soundbar dropping arc. I ended up settling and turned bitstream off and going back to pcm. With this product just be mindful of your HDMI port location as its basically the size of the bulky end of your typical HDMI cable. You might not have enough room to run your HDMI cord or need something with a right angle.

This solved our issue of the Samsung TV not playing nice with the PC plugged in via USB. Despite directions insisting that only one port would engage the PC override, this was not the case. This plug allowed the PC to operate properly. This took a LOT of digging to figure out. Hope it saves someone else the trouble.

my friend recommend this product to me to fix eArc cause TV set return to On after off. unfortunately it doesn't work for me, the TV set still have problem, also it cause my pc have 500% scale on screen and black screen. After I unplug it., everything get normal🤦‍♂️

It took care of my pc and monitor incompatibility.
