OREI 4K 18G HDMI Audio Extractor Converter - SPDIF + 3.5mm Output – HDMI 2.0 & HDCP 2.2 - Dolby Digital/DTS Passthrough CEC, HDR, Dolby Vision, HDR10 Support (HDA-912)

My BenQ display lacks ARC/eARC and optical out, so I paired it with the OREI HDMI Audio Extractor for my Sony HT-S20R. Setup was straightforward, and it delivers clean audio output with full support for PCM/Bitstream over HDMI. No sync issues, no quality loss. Solid build and reliable performance—perfect fix for non-ARC displays.Pros: Easy setup, clean audio, supports PCM/Bitstream, solid buildMinor drawbacks:• Requires external power supply• Relatively higher price.

It's Absolutely Value For Money , The Picture Quality Was So Amazing , Easy To Use , Works Properly With My Fire TV Stick 4K And Very Nice Build Quality.

Seems to be reliable product. Very good, clear sound output. Best part you can switch between 5.1/2.1 which helps you for listening to movies/ songs. The product is premium and looks sturdy. For songs, you can switch to 2.1 and you'll have a very decent sterio experience ( front LR and rear LR speakers will play) 5.1 is also Crystal clear. Used it with airtel fiber box and fire TV stick. Gives better quality than bluetooth/ aux.

I bought this device to extract HDMI audio to be sent to my old but very capable stereo amplifier. I was previously using my TV’s Audio Out to supply the amplifier but was not satisfied with the TV’s audio processing. From the point of view of audio quality, this device does a good job. There is a noticeable improvement in audio coming from the amplifier.However, this device has a big problem. After a month and a half of use, it began (and continues) to drop the incoming signal. The TV will not receive video and the amplifier will not receive audio for a few or even many signals. It is a random problem – an hour of flawless performance followed by disconnections every 10 seconds, or the other way around – but it occurs every time the device is used. Additionally, the audio extraction sometimes fails when the device begins working again – the amplifier doesn’t get sound when the device regains signal but the TV receives video – but either way it ruins the experience of sitting down with family to enjoy a movie.I can eliminate the problem very easily by unplugging the input HDMI cable from the Orei device and plugging it directly into the TV – the problem disappears instantly, and reappears quickly when the signal is again routed through this device. This proves that only this device in the chain is causing the problem but I bought a new, short HDMI cable that supports all the latest standards just to eliminate the cable as a potential cause of the problem, but the problem occurs irrespective of which cable is used.The frequent intermittency makes this device a waste of money which is a pity as the audio quality improvement is very nice when it does work as expected.

Value for money. It's a great product. It's solved our audio lagging problem while watching movies in projector.we normally connect the. Audio via bluetooth only.but audio lag issue was there. After using this device our audi quality improved and picture quality also improved.

This product is fully compatible with PS5, it supports HDR and easily switches between HDMI 1.4 [PS5 Media] and 2.0 [PS5 Games]It supports 720p, 1080p, 1440p, 2160p and does support 120hz at 1440p and 2160p.It also supports YUV422 and YUV444.It supports HBR but it does not support VRR. I always use Bitstream on it.One thing to not is that while it does support mostly all the functions for what it is, it just lacks one thing that is DDC/CI. Which is not that big of a deal. I bought many audio extractors and audio converters but this is the ONLY ONE THAT WORKS with PS5 while supporting HDR and it doesn't overheat also.IT WAS A WORTH BUY. I am reviewing after two month of using it.

Have been using since couple of days with jio set-top-box and JBL Sb510 3.1 soundbar (via optic cable).As most of streaming platforms use Dobly Digital Plus for atmos, I am able to get the 5.1, atoms badge on OTT with this.Although product looks premium, compact, easy to fit and use, need to see how long does it last. Functions as what is promises to deliver.Even with all these, the price looks on expensive side.

Ok here it is. I got this delivered and before that i went through all videos regarding installation.One person have practically done a desktop connection but he is using vga cable from cpu to monitor. I am using a desktop with gpu so i didn’t want to skip the display and sound from gpu gives better video and sound quality and I have a samsung 2.1 soundbar model t42e xl and this one doesn’t have hdmi only bluetooth, usb for pendrive only and optical. I don’t know how the dolby works but as of now i don’t have dolby using fx sound application. Bluetooth is lagging so only option was orei hdmi extractor. Got this and till then my monitor was connected to gpu with a display cable and not hdmi. SoGraphics card—display cable——monitor.Graphics card—hdmi—extractor input.Extractor output—optical cable—soundbar.On bitstream switch.Now there was no audio in my soundbar.Then i switched toGraphics card—hdmi—extractor input.Extractor output—hdmi—monitor.Extractor output—optical—soundbar.Switch to bitstream or 2 ch both working.You need two hdmi cables.Display cable is lying useless.Now the sound output was there from the soundbar.So far playing good. Dolby is not there dont know about the specs of the soundbar. Dolby is written but not how it works.So the product is working in great condition and it is useful for someone who has a soundbar with no hdmi or audio port. In that case optical is the best as crisp and clear sound is provided with high quality video.
