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)

​real review .. these days projectors dont comply with audio functions properly so this audio extractor would be perfect. Perfect 4K Video & 5.1 Surround Sound! Easy Setup! Solved my projector’s ARC issue completely. Gives crisp 4K Netflix video on the projector and true 5.1 Dolby Digital audio on my soundbar. ​Required Cables to Buy: ​HDMI Cable: Buy an HDMI 2.0 Hcdp 2.2 complaint (18 Gbps / High Speed) cable to run from the Extractor OUT to your projector/TV. ​Audio Cable: Buy a standard Digital Optical SPDIF (Toslink) 4k cable to connect from the Extractor to your soundbar. ​Quick Setup: ​Set the physical switch on the OREI box to BITSTREAM. ​On Fire TV: Go to Settings > Display & Audio > Audio > Surround Sound and select Dolby Digital (not DD+). ​Turn ON Volume Leveler & Dialogue Enhancer in Fire TV audio settings for crystal-clear voices!

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.

Solved my setup issue completely! My 2015 TV lacks an optical output and HDMI ARC, so connecting my Sony home theater via Bluetooth wasn’t delivering true 5.1 sound. I initially tried a cheaper (~₹900) extractor, but it started lagging, cutting, and distorting audio during movies. ​Switching to this Orei extractor made a huge difference. The build quality is solid and premium. After a couple of weeks of use, it runs smoothly without any audio lag or interference, delivering proper 5.1 / Dolby surround sound. A great solution if you want to keep your older TV

Does extract audio from HDMI to optical out the home theater/ Soundbar very well. 4K HDR video pass-through works as it should. But, if I try to do a audio pass-through to my TV the video from my 4K player goes haywire and the picture starts blinking along with artifacts. This happens only if the TV audio is set the TV speakers on my Sony x75l. I then have to switch to external Audio System option of my TV to stop this. So basically, can't watch anything using the video player using TV speakers while using this adapter/extractor. Without the extractor, no issues. But, we need the extractor to watch videos with dts/dts-HD audio with surround sound via the extractor passing through optical cable to the home theater because most branded TVs don't support dts passthrough.

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. So Graphics 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 to Graphics 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.

works properly . but uses HDMI 2.0 as advertised not HDMI 2.1 for the recent times kindly note. i extracted optical audio and 4K video simultaneously

I received this item with its power cable and when I asked Amazon for return then they refused. Amazon is selling trash in India. Low quality product, less durable, used/open box item, less reliable. Once u purchased anything from Amazon, then you need to invest your time and efforts in its return and refund.

It is working absolutely fine...did wonders for my old LED which didnt have HDMI Arc and Optic ports for sound....this device did the trick. Overall very satisfied

quality

perfetto!!!! con questo accessorio è possibile utilizzare il canale ottico per indirizzarlo ad un sintoamplificatore dolby surround (di vecchia data che non ha ingresso HDMI) e sentire l'audio di Netflix in formato dolby disponibile

I picked this up to get my older optical headset (Astro A50 Gen 1) working with my Xbox Series X, and overall it did exactly what I needed. First off, I was surprised by how compact it is—much smaller than I expected. Despite the size, the build quality feels solid and premium. The all-metal casing is a nice touch and gives it a durable feel. Setup wasn’t completely plug-and-play. It took a bit of fiddling to get the digital handshake working properly, but once everything synced up, it worked reliably without further issues. Most importantly, it solved my problem. I was able to use my older optical headset without needing to replace it, which saved me a decent amount of money.

Commandé sur Amazon FR et expédié par Amazon UK reçu avec un adaptateur secteur au brochage Anglais donc incompatible avec nos prises de courant. Il faudra prévoir un adaptateur de voyage en supplément. A prendre en considération lors de l'achat. Autrement produit solide, tout métal et emballage en carton très résistant. Il a survécu au transport !!!

Simples e prático de utilizar .
