Sometimes, laying a video cable between the source and the TV (or projector) is not feasible or convenient, especially when they are in a separate room. Although many wireless HDMI solutions can send AV signals in a room, we still like
Because it can reliably transmit signals around the entire house (up to 100 feet), and has more features than other similarly priced systems.
The transmitter can easily and reliably wirelessly send HDMI video signals and 5.1 audio to a receiver up to 100 feet away, and can be powered by a USB port.

It is a low-cost, easy-to-use option that can wirelessly send 1080p and 5.1 HDMI video and audio signals in the entire room or the entire house without degrading the quality. The basic unit has two HDMI inputs and one HDMI output, so you can plug in multiple sources and easily get power from the USB 3.0 port (more information below).

It is a bit more expensive than our main product, but it combines two HDMI inputs and supports 7.1 sound.
If you want to fill the room with other audio,
Support 7.1 sound. Like our preferred product, this model can support two HDMI sources, can be powered through a USB port, and has reliable performance. However, the additional cost prevents it from occupying the top spot.
This does not have our first two options or multiple input ranges, but it is an inexpensive way to transmit an HDMI source wirelessly.

It does not pass through walls as well as other pickups, but it is strong enough to send the signal to the entire room. This is a cheap and easy way to stream HDMI sources. It has only one HDMI input, but it does support 7.1 sound and USB power, and it is the cheapest model we have tested.

The products mentioned here are used to wirelessly transmit high-definition video and audio signals from HDMI signal sources to the TV. There are four main uses for wireless HD products:
But remember, convenience comes at a price. Wireless is always more temperament than wired, it takes some time to synchronize (connect), and it may/occasionally drop.
A few words about all wireless HDTV solutions. Almost every wireless HDTV product can transmit up to 1080p video from any HDMI signal source you send. This includes Blu-ray (2D and 3D), cable/satellite and gaming systems. Most TVs also emit infrared signals, so when you are in another room of the TV, you can control the signal source (such as a cable box) connected to the transmitter. The wireless products covered in this guide can handle all current 720p and 1080p, but they cannot use Ultra HD 4K. However, 4K solutions are beginning to appear (see "
"For more information).
When choosing a product, we searched for the product on Google and Amazon. We also studied the technology used on each product. (Warning: terminology!) There are two main standards for wireless transmission of HDMI signals:
Devices using the same wireless transmission standard will work similarly to each other, and each standard has its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, products that use the WirelessHD standard can transmit uncompressed video. However, they only work when there are no obstacles (such as walls or cabinets) between the transmitter and receiver. In other words, if you want to place the TV in a room different from the signal source, you are out of luck. To make matters worse, many cabinets block high-frequency signals, so hiding the signal source in furniture will not work. In our tests, even walking between the transmitter and receiver seemed to interfere with the signal.
Model using Wi-Fi, for example
, Less common. However, Actiontec is one of the few products that allows you to add other receivers, so multiple TVs in your home can use the same source. For most people, our best option is a better choice, but if there are multiple recipients that are useful to you, then Actiontec is worth a try.
There are other wireless technologies that are not yet widely available on the market. For example, WiGig or wireless gigabit has the bandwidth to handle 1080p video (and then some videos). However, WiGig is similar to WirelessHD and works in the 60 GHz frequency band, so it may have similar limitations.
Intel's WiDi is built into the notebook computer, and does not have the "thousands of miles away" features like the products here. It is worth noting that if your laptop has an HDMI output, although you need to connect to a wireless transmitter via HDMI, you can use one of these products to wirelessly send computer content to the screen.
We connect the receiver part of each product to the TV on the first floor of a small house. Then, we paired four HDMI transmitters with the Blu-ray player and Roku box, located in the four areas of the house. First, place the source device on a table 10 feet directly opposite the TV. Then, we moved the video equipment to a room 20 feet away adjacent to the TV area. This room does not have a door, but it is not within the line of sight of the home theater. Next, move it to an adjacent room, which is separated by a wall 25 feet away. Then, we moved the equipment to the furthest point in the house, in the corner of the bedroom upstairs 45 feet away.
In our final test, all equipment failed: 100 feet from the TV across the street. Many products claim to have this type of range, but unless you have an absolute line of sight between the two products, you can bring a little salt.
We watched several Blu-rays wirelessly, including action, animation, and comedy. Next, we try to stream content from Netflix, Amazon and Crackle. Finally, we played
Use the Roku 3 box, which is longer than we should.
It is the best HDMI transmitter for most people. Using WHDI, it can provide the best image at the longest distance, has two HDMI inputs, and can be powered by the included AC adapter or the TV's USB 3.0 connection (cable not included). It is also the cheapest dual HDMI unit we have tested.
The basic unit of the Iogear transmitter has two HDMI inputs and one HDMI output. This means that you can connect a TV, transmitter, and signal source (such as a Blu-ray, cable/satellite TV box) in one room, while wirelessly sending the same signal to another TV elsewhere in the house.
Throughout the test, the device performed well even if the transmitter and receiver were located on different floors. There is also no significant video delay. This means that gamers who are worried about their twitch skills should not pay too much attention to wireless technology. Due to the encoding/decoding process, it may increase the time by a fraction of a second, but it is less than the time that can be detected using conventional test procedures.
Perhaps our favorite feature of Iogear is that you can use the USB 3.0 port to power the receiver unit (you need to buy your own USB 3.0 rating)
cable). This means that Iogear can get power from the TV without having to connect extra wires to a power outlet. This makes it easy to hide and is an effective alternative to cutting holes in the wall to hide cables. Not every TV has USB 3.0, the receiver may still work with fewer USB connections, but Iogear specifies USB 3.0. If your TV does not have a USB 3.0 port, Iogear will also come with a power adapter. Moreover, the receiver is small enough to fit behind many wall-mounted TVs.
Finally, it should be noted that the GW3DHDKIT transmitter is compact. Unlike our runner-up, GW3DHDKIT has a horizontal design, but it can also be used vertically, so it is easy to slide into the AV cabinet.
in
, Daniel Kumin from Sound & Vision said: "Iogear's solution allowed me to choose the latest solution: the widest range, the most features, and the ergonomics." His only complaint was that it was a bit expensive. But since his review, the price has been cut by almost half, which brings it in line with the WirelessHD product that he doesn't like much.
Mark Anderson from HomeToys
"If you want to place a TV or projector where it is difficult to lay cables, or want to connect a TV in another room to your main home theater, the Iogear Wireless HD 3D Digital Kit may be just a ticket. In all my tests It all worked perfectly."
The genius writer of HD Guru (coincidentally, just like our own Geoff Morrison)
(two over five). In a comparison test with three other wireless HD transmitters
, He said to Iogear: "If Iogear can rush to our preliminary review in time, it will undoubtedly win."
Like all current wireless HDTV solutions, Iogear is not perfect. Although we did not encounter serious problems during the test, a few Amazon reviews reported problems with transmission distance. In our test, our transmitter and receiver are located at the opposite corners of my little house, and good images can be obtained, but compared with a wired connection at the same distance, doing so will result in a significant reduction in image quality. Remember, the result will depend on the size and structure of the house.
In other words, it is unfair to expect any wireless system to work perfectly at the nominal maximum distance, especially in the presence of obstacles. On smaller TVs (such as 50 inches and below), you are unlikely to see a difference in picture quality even at a long distance. In the same room, the image is always perfect.
Please also note that although the Iogear receiver can be powered by USB power, it can only be used with USB 3.0, and there is actually no USB cable (you need to provide it).
Finally, since the transmitter only has two HDMI inputs, if you have more than two HDMI sources (one
Or HDMI switcher would be better).
The price is slightly higher than our first choice
It is another good choice for wireless HDMI use. That extra cost is because the product increases audio support to 7.1. Its performance is very similar to the Iogear model, with two HDMI inputs, one HDMI output and a USB power option (but still not including the cable).
The excellent performance of Aries Home+ is all our test. It uses a technology called GigaXtreme Technology, which operates similarly to WHDI, so it can pass through walls and cabinets. It also has support for uncompressed 7.1 PCM, DTS and Dolby Digital surround sound.
Said: "The overall experience of watching video and TV definitely exceeded my expectations."
This is certainly a good performance, but we doubt whether 7.1 will make most people want to spend extra money. Unless you want to build a complete home theater, for most people, our first choice will be the best choice.
For those who can’t drill, wire or spend a lot of money,
It is a good budget choice. It can stream an HDMI signal source and has the USB power option that we liked very much in the first two choices.
However, this model runs at 60 Hz, which means it is an excellent indoor solution. When sight is available, it works well at medium distances. It does not work properly through walls or cabinets (or does not work at all).
It can support 7.1 sound, including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD main audio streams, which makes it unique in this category and price range. If you need a simple short-distance solution, then Blackbird Pro is definitely a good choice.
Companies such as DVDO and IOGear have launched or announced wireless HDMI systems with 4K capabilities, such as
with
. Currently, there is no 4K friendly system that we know of that can transmit HDR wirelessly, only
Support full 4K/60 signal. Since these wireless systems cannot provide a complete UHD/HDR experience, we are unwilling to choose in this category. For indoor settings, we still recommend using an 18 Gbps HDMI cable to get the most stable signal. For remote UHD/HDR settings, you might consider using an HDMI-like fiber optic system
We tested two samples
, Can be sold in houses and apartment environments through Wal-Mart. The Blackweb system can support up to three HDMI signal sources, can pass through walls, and can generate reliable signals in multiple rooms in the house. However, in apartments, the reliability of the signal is much worse. Even if the transmitter and receiver are in the same room, we still see stuttering and blocking in the video. In addition, both Blackweb samples crushed the black, making the image too dark, so you must readjust the brightness control of the TV to compensate. If you are looking for an inexpensive way to wirelessly transmit HDMI around your house, as long as you don't mind changing the TV settings, the Blackweb kit can do the job.
Similar to our budget selection,
Use 60 GHz technology to provide 1080p/60 uncompressed video and audio. This means that it is best used as an indoor solution. Like the Monoprice model, it also has a USB power option and an HDMI input, but the price is slightly higher.
If our popular choice does not have enough investment to meet your needs, then you may want to consider
. The transmitter has four HDMI and an analog component input, which is a convenient choice for people who have multiple signal sources but no receiver, even if it is expensive. However, we think that most people can do it with our preferred product and the HDMI switcher priced at $20.
Egger's
It should be similar to our choice, but farther away. With it, you can stream uncompressed HD content to up to four different displays (with additional receivers). Because it is over $500 and is specifically for a longer range, we believe this is beyond the scope of this article.
Similar to our runner-up, but reduced costs by canceling one of its HDMI connections. It does have support for 7.1 sound, but the price is too high for a single source solution.
It can transmit up to 1080p/60 video through the wall, but its transmission distance is smaller than Aries Home+ (40 feet), only supports Dolby Digital 5.1 audio, and only supports a single HDMI signal source. However, it has the function of HDMI pass-through to nearby TVs. You can also add more receivers, and you can power the transmitter and receiver via USB.
Unparalleled
Similar to Iogear, but with the addition of USB transfer, so you can transfer content from a game controller, keyboard or mouse, but at a higher cost.

HDMI is a great technology, but if you have to transmit cables over long distances, they are not the most reliable. On the other hand, Ethernet cables (or more accurately Cat5e/Cat6 cables) are more suitable for traveling many feet. It is also cheap. solution? Use an Ethernet cable to extend your HDMI connection. All you need is this small adapter.
As Apartment Therapy Tech pointed out, the cost of running HDMI over a long distance is about 80 cents per foot, while Cat5e/Cat6 is only 15 cents. It seems to be a bargain.

Aims to be a relatively cheap Android TV streaming dongle for 1080p TVs. Like other Android TV devices, it provides Google Assistant voice controls, Chromecast support, and an exquisite menu for recommending content to watch.
However, all of this is spoiled by the performance of the Mi TV Stick, which ranges from average (in apps such as Netflix and HBO) to unusable (in Hulu). The possibility of combining remote remote control and more interesting Android TV devices is coming, that is,
-Xiaomi Mi TV Stick does not provide much support for it.
Like Amazon’s Fire TV Stick and Roku’s Streaming Stick+, Mi TV Stick is a fingertip-length device that can be plugged directly into the HDMI slot of a modern TV. Depending on the arrangement of the HDMI ports on the TV, you may need
Makes the Xiaomi TV stick suitable; fortunately, Xiaomi now has one in the box.
For technical specifications, Mi TV Stick uses Cortex-A53 quad-core processor and Mali-450 GPU, with 1GB RAM and 8GB onboard storage space. These components are similar to those used by Xiaomi in its previous Android TV players,
with
, But its RAM is half of these devices, and does not support 4K video.
In practice, hardware will bring a slow experience. When scrolling the menu, the system usually fluctuates between a smooth frame rate and an unstable frame rate, and it may take more than five seconds for the main screen to reload after exiting the application. Even if you just press a button on the remote control, it often fails to produce an immediate response.
For whatever reason, Hulu seems to have brought the most serious of these problems. Scrolling on the app will cause the Mi TV Stick to freeze for a few seconds at a time, and occasionally trip, or even crash back to the home screen. Crashes often occur during media playback, usually when trying to fast forward or adjust the device volume.
The fact that Xiaomi has not solved the problem of one of the most popular streaming services does not inspire confidence, especially since some early adopters of Mi TV Stick have already
Since August last year. Xiaomi said that performance issues in apps like Hulu may be related to the EU version of the hardware, rather than the US version that will be launched later this year. After the release of this version, we will re-evaluate, but at the same time, since the EU model is currently being sold on Amazon, buyers must proceed with caution.
At the same time, the remote control is also a disappointing choice, although not surprising, because it is almost the same as the 2018 Mi Box S. (The only difference is: it now has a shortcut button for Amazon Prime Video.) The minimalist remote has a hollow, cheap feel; more importantly, it lacks an infrared transmitter for direct control of TV volume and power. The best thing you can do is to control the internal volume of the Mi TV Stick (up to the maximum volume you set on the TV itself), or use HDMI-CEC to control the connected sound system. In 2020, there is really no excuse for this omission.
The Xiaomi Mi TV Stick remote has volume buttons, but the lack of infrared support means that it cannot directly control the volume of the TV.
It’s also worth noting that apart from Micro-USB, there are no other ports on the Mi TV Stick that can provide power. Although some Android TV devices can pass
, This does not apply to Mi TV Stick. Neither the Xbox One controller nor the USB thumb drive could be registered via the USB-OTG cable, and plugging in the USB keyboard caused the device to restart.
The Xiaomi Mi TV Stick runs Android 9.0.
The hardware of Mi TV Stick is particularly disappointing, because the underlying Android TV software is already very good. The usability of the app (once it becomes the Achilles heel of Android TV) is no longer a problem, because the platform now provides almost all the streaming services you might want. With Amazon
, The emergence of HBO Max and Peacock on Android TV even gives the platform a certain advantage. (
)
The Android TV home screen takes some time to adapt, but it can be very useful if you spend some time customizing it to your liking. At the top of the screen, in addition to the mandatory preview content line, there is also a customizable quick-start application shortcut line. Below is a series of "channel" rows from different applications that provide suggestions on what to watch. By scrolling to the left of any channel row, you can delete it or rearrange its order on the main screen.
Android TV provides a customizable home screen row, each row has recommendations from different applications.
Although you still have to dig into each application to view its full catalog, you can view recommendations from Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, HBO Max, Disney+, and other streaming sources at a glance. The only problem is the "Next Play" line of Android TV, which should help you quickly restore all the programs you have watched. Many streaming sources continue to ignore this feature of Android TV, making it largely useless.
Other logos of Android TV also appeared on Xiaomi Mi TV Stick. Using the Google Assistant button on the remote control, you can directly launch videos in supported applications (such as Netflix and HBO Max); search by genre, actor or director; control smart home devices; or in Spotify and YouTube music, etc. Play music in the app.
Google Assistant is good at performing detailed genre searches on Android TV.
The built-in Chromecast support is also convenient when you use a phone or tablet and want to launch videos without having to grab the remote control, and when you want to listen in private, the system works well with Bluetooth headsets.
The built-in Chromecast support means that you can use the apps on your phone (including Plexamp, as shown on the left) to play media on the TV (as shown on the right).
But in some respects, Android TV still doesn't seem to be perfect. Google Assistant has some weird blind spots-for example, it can't search the Amazon Prime catalog, and an error occurs when trying to launch CBS All Access content-and using Google Photos album as a screen saver does not seem to work as expected. The same on Chromecast devices. Android TV also lacks single sign-on capabilities for the TV Everywhere app, similar to those available on Apple TV, Fire TV, and Roku devices. Overall, it has become a powerful TV operating system with some unique advantages.
Although Xiaomi only recently launched the Mi TV Stick in the United States, the possibility of Google buying cheaper Android TV devices is imminent. The device is code-named "Sabrina" and is allegedly called
, It is likely to be announced on September 30, the price is between 50 and 60 US dollars. There are rumors that it will be different from Mi TV Stick, it will support 4K streaming, and it may have

Those who want low-cost Android TV devices will be wisely waited to see what Google brings. However, even with its own advantages, the Xiaomi Mi TV Stick is difficult to sell.
At the same $50 asking price, you can get
or
, Both provide better performance, a more powerful remote control and 4K HDR video support. We can only hope that Google will provide a better alternative to these budgets better than Xiaomi.

Roku is a very popular name in the home streaming world. The company provides a large number of streaming media joysticks and smart TVs, so if Roku doesn't work properly, what should you do? Although we cannot teach you how to build your favorite apps for this platform, we can provide you with many troubleshooting tips. The following are the most common Roku problems and their solutions.
Ideally, your Roku should never really face these problems. However, it is important to master some skills. If none of these methods seem to work, then it may be time to check our
Used for new streaming media devices.
The good news is that the most common Roku problems can be solved with a simple system update, reboot or reset. Obviously, updating or restarting is faster than resetting, but we will guide you through all three processes.
Most Roku updates are done automatically in the background, but no one is perfect. Sometimes, you may find that you have to roll up your sleeves and update yourself. What does this do:
If you encounter problems, there are actually two ways to restart the Roku streaming device. If your remote is working and can be fully controlled, the first method is best, and if the device seems to be frozen, the second method is better. There are two methods:
Factory reset is the most extreme way to fix most Roku issues. As the name suggests, it will restore your streaming media device to its default settings. You must re-download and re-login all applications, but this should help fix common errors. What does this do:
You can also use Roku's physical reset button to skip the menu steps. Some devices have large buttons that you can press with your fingers, although you need a paperclip or something similar to press the pinhole reset button on the Roku Ultra.
Roku streaming devices are generally reliable, but no one is perfect. Sometimes, you will find that the hardware itself is the source of the problem. There are not many things that can go wrong, but please pay attention to the following points:
If you place the Roku on top of other devices or in a narrow space, it may overheat. This shouldn't be very common, but if the Roku overheats, you will see a warning on the screen. Some Roku devices also have LED lights that will light up red when overheated.
When you see a warning or LED indicator on the screen, immediately turn off Roku and unplug the power plug. Wait ten minutes or more, then reconnect the device and turn on the power again. If the problem persists, turn off Roku and unplug it. If you cannot find a way to cool the device, you may have to contact Roku, as this may indicate a major hardware problem.
You may also encounter a problem where the Roku's power supply is insufficient, displayed as a red LED or a warning on the screen. If you have plugged a USB-powered Roku device into the TV in a closed loop, it may be the cause of the problem. Some TVs have USB sockets that have less power than other TVs, while others are not intended to provide power at all.
The easiest way to solve this Roku problem is to plug the USB into the power adapter that came in the original box. Roku designed the adapter to provide the correct power level, so trust the hardware! If you still have problems, try moving the power adapter to a new outlet or power distribution panel.
Most Roku products come with simple IR remotes, but Streaming Stick Plus and Ultra complicate Wi-Fi remotes. Of course, they can enable you to point out any results, but you may experience connection problems. Most of these problems should be easy to resolve during installation, but if not, you can try the following:
Unfortunately, the infrared remote control still needs a direct line of sight to your streaming media device. This means that you have to move all obstacles between yourself and the streaming device. Make sure to check the line of sight from wherever you want to sit in front of the TV.
You can also replace the battery in the IR remote control to strengthen the connection. The infrared emitter works like a flashlight, only as good as its beam intensity. Replacing a new set of batteries should help solve this type of Roku problem.
Roku's Wi-Fi remote is slightly more complicated, but it is also significantly more powerful. You can try the battery tricks mentioned above, but it can also help restart or re-pair remote devices and streaming devices. Please try the following steps:
This should restart the two components, if you must re-pair the two components, you can do the following:
If you are not sure which remote to use, remove the battery cover. If you have a Wi-Fi remote control, you will see a small pairing button, but the IR remote control will not provide that button.
Your Roku device needs a stable internet connection to reliably pump content to the TV. One of the most common causes of Roku problems is if you don't have a strong enough connection. On the bright side, this is usually not because of a problem with your streaming device.
You can check the Roku connection status from the "Settings" menu. Just go to the "Network" section and look for the "Signal Strength" indicator. You should see "excellent", "good", "fair" or "bad" indicators. If your connection is normal or poor, you may want to try to improve the connection.
If your Roku device has an Ethernet port, try to connect to the Internet this way to test whether the problem is due to Wi-Fi. This may mean that you have to reset the router, or you may want to relocate the Roku. It is not always possible, especially if you have a streaming joystick, but you can also try to relocate the TV. The error code 009 on Roku means that it is connected to the router without the Internet. If this happens, restart Roku.
Audio and video issues on Roku can come from several different locations. There may be a problem with your application or software settings, but if the connection is incorrect, it may also be a hardware problem.
Before trying these more complex solutions, try restarting Roku first. Unplug the power plug, wait a few seconds, and then turn on the power again. This sounds like a stupid answer, but it usually works miracles.
Any question? Here are some possible solutions:
If you have a Roku, please check your HDMI input on both ends. All your cables should be firmly connected to the TV and streaming media device. You may also need to check if you are connected to the correct audio input. Finally, make sure to turn off the mute function, and then try to adjust the TV volume.
You can use the "Settings" menu to adjust the audio input. Press the "Home" button on the remote control and go to "Settings", where you will find the "Audio" option. If you connect via HDMI, please adjust the setting to "Stereo" and then change HDMI to "PCM-Stereo".
You may notice that your audio and video playback are out of sync. In this case, you may have to mess up the video refresh settings. Just follow the steps below:
Roku's companion app is an essential add-on for Android and iOS users, but it may cause some common problems. You can use the app as a remote control, which is the easiest way to add content to a streaming device. However, you must ensure that the connection settings are correctly obtained. Like most problems, the root cause may be your Wi-Fi connection, so here are some solutions:
Modern Wi-Fi routers usually come with two different networks-2.4 GHz option and 5 GHz option. You should make sure that both your phone and streaming media device are connected to the same network, just in case. The two networks should be able to communicate with each other, but sometimes you have to be extra careful.
Hope we can help you find solutions to the most common Roku problems. If none of the above techniques work, it may be time to replace your
