5GHz Digital Wireless Video Sender DMA3000T&R Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've been using a wireless video sender to share a cable box between two TV's for 10 years. My old one recently started not working very well with microwaves ovens and blue tooth devices.
So I went on a quest to find a new one that would be crystal clear.
In doing research I found that older wireless phones, bluetooth devices and microwaves use a frequency around 2 to 4 GHz. Newer phone technology now uses 6.0 GHz. These units use 5 GHz and use what they call WIVI technology.
They work extremely well, much better than my old ones. No fuzzy pictures or weak signal strength lines. The picture is clear and sharp and sound it great.
I have the transmitter unit on my Comcast DVR on a downstairs TV. I have the sender in a bedroom, one floor higher. This unit has a remote extender built in, so an extra comcast remote works the box downstairs from the bedroom upstairs. I works so well, now I want an extra receiver unit to go to another TV.
This unit is well worth the money and in the long run, saves you cable box fees.

Sony DMXWL1 BRAVIA Wireless HD Link Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This product works great...when it works. The problem is since this is on the bleeding edge of technology it has a number of glitches. The largest problem you are going to run into has nothing to do with signal interference, but rather signal compatibility. I hooked up an Xbox360, Cable Box, PS3, and DVD player/sound system and sent the video signal to my projector and used the Toslink out for the sound which went to my DVD player/sound system. For the Xbox360 I could get video to get sent to my projector, but the sound wouldn't transmit to my sound system. For my PS3, which is made by the same company, I could get sound just fine, but no video. The only thing that worked properly is playing a DVD, but that was because the sound was localized to the system already otherwise I'm sure I would have gotten video only out of it. Bottom line, for video games and tv there was no lag, no contouring, and no pixilation. I ended up returning this product and opting for a hard wire run and just putting cable covers on to hide the cords. My advice, wait for the second generation of this product, and if you are going to buy make sure there is a good return policy...that's why I bought it on Amazon.

brite-View HDelight (BV-1222) Uncompressed 1080p Beam-to-TV Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was thinking about getting a cheap net-top as a HTPC because I have no desire of building one, but then I came across brite-view's HDelight. Reading the specs, I realized I can just use my current laptop for the job. I have an Acer Aspire 5810TZ-4274 that I really like, and now that I can also use it as a HTPC is just awesome.
The HDelight comes in two pieces, besides all the other cables in the box - it contains a small transmitter (not even palm size) and a slightly larger receiver with the option of it being screwed to the back of the TV (screws are included but I didn't try them).
It comes with two HDMI cables - I like that. One short one for the transmitter + computer, and the other one for TV+ receiver.
The set up can not be easier - I literally just connected the small transmitter to my Acer laptop's HDMI port using the short HDMI cable and then to the Acer's USB port (there is a mini USB to USB cable in the package), and then I connected the receiver to the TV, gave it some juice from the power supply, waited for a few seconds while the transmitter's blue LED light blinks - and then I saw my computer's desktop on TV!
Played with Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, without any problems; great video and audio quality. Did not test Blu-ray because the Acer doesn't have a BD dirve. I was using the computer right in front of me when I'm in the living room, and the distance between the transmitter and receiver is about 10 ft apart.
BTW, the HDelight is using the same solution of Asus' wicast, but seriously, it costs $40 less!! The HDelight is a great deal.

brite-View Air SyncHD (BV-2322) Uncompressed 1080p Video/ Audio Wireless Transmission Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just received the Air SynchHD yesterday so my experience is somewhat limited, but so far it is working great. I bought this to use to watch TV out by the pool on game day and to eliminate the long HDMI cable that I had been dragging back and forth each weekend and hanging out a window. So far I have tested it outside and the picture is as clear as it was when the HDTV was connected by HDMI directly to the cable box. My setup outside is definitely pushing the limits of the 33 foot NLOS so it took some time to find a placement of the receiver that would allow it to connect to the transmitter. But once connected, I let it run for about four hours and never lost the signal. While I bought this for game day outside I found that I can also use it during the weekdays when we are not outside to eliminate a second cable box in our exercise room. That setup puts the receiver about 20 feet from the transmitter and works perfectly as well. We are going to end up saving over $17 a month on our cable bill by eliminating two cable boxes (the one we had designated for outside and the one in the exercise room).
One possible option to consider: The Air SynchHD only has one HDMI-in port but I have hooked it up with a IO Gear HDMI smart switch and can use it with our cable box, PS3 and Blu-Ray player. The smart switch just sends the signal for whichever one is on to the transmitter. So, we can do movies, watch cable or play games outside (or in our exercise room). I definitely recommend this setup for anyone who wants to be able to use more than one HD device with the transmitter. It is much easier than disconnecting and reconnecting cables every time you want to switch from cable box to blu-ray, etc.. Oh, and the HDMI output feature is great as well to allow you to use this device with a cable box that is also connected to another HDTV. I run the output HDMI cable to our Onkyo receiver. The receiver has a multi-room feature that feeds our outdoor speakers so we can watch HDTV in full stereo sound outside.
If I experience any problems after further use I will update this review. But, I have to admit that so far this product has worked great.

Imation Link Wireless HD Audio/Video Extender Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I like to watch movies, and I have a really nice TV for doing this. Streaming movies from the web to my PC was lame because I only have a 19" LCD, but they look great with this product on my TV. Netflix streaming through my PS3 was really poor quality compared to the browser based one as well. I also like that I can put together a slide show of my pictures and let the entire family view it on the TV which having to crowd around my computer to see them on my monitor. The best part is the ability to be doing something else on my regular monitor while the the TV shows the movie/youtube/pictures at the same time.

RF Link AVS-5813 5.8Ghz A/V Wireless Receiver Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought one of these units in March 2006 in response to my wife constantly changing room arrangements, and subsequently requiring that the TV work in an area that didn't have easy cable access. I looked at several units from other manufacturers, and actually bought one to try from Best Buy, which was a Leapfrog, I think. Testing that unit convinced me that the concept was sound, and I would have kept that unit except that it operated on 2.4 GHz, which caused interference every time the microwave was in use, or the telephone rang. My computer is hard wired into a network as I don't want to deal with the increased security requirements of wireless, and my phones work fine on 2.4 GHz, so I was looking for a solution, but with 5.8GHz.
I called RF-Link tech support, got all of my questions answered and placed the order through Amazon.
Product worked flawlessly for about six months and then crapped out. By crapping out, I mean that when unit was in an enclosed space where there was exessive heat buildup, the unit would stop working after about 10 minutes.
I contacted RF-Link tech support, and they promptly sent out a replacement unit, explaining that the motherboard had been completely redesigned, and therefore they sent me new units as well as new power supplies. The replacement units have worked flawlessly.
Although I was upset at having to go through the return/RMA process and the delay in using the product until thr replacement was received, everything is fine now. I would recommend this product to anyone who doesn't want the expense of paying to install cable outlets everywhere.
And for those who are concerned about 5.8 GHz interference, with phones, 6.0GHz phones are already available, so no future compatability issues there either.

ASUS WiCast EW2000 Wireless HD Video Transmitter and Receiver Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm looking for wireless HD solutions for a while to meet my needs : 1. to work with my DirectTV receiver DIRECTV Plus® HR24 High Definition MPEG-4 DVR (HR-24-500) HD DVRand wirelessly transmit the HD A/V signals to my 2nd TV in other room; 2. to wirelessly send signals to the projector from my laptop with HDMI output. Recently I found Amimon's WHDI solution is the most latest and advanced technology and here comes two products using this technology which can fulfill my requests and I got both of them. They are ASUS WiCast EW2000 Wireless HD Video Transmitter and Receiver (from my laptlop) and brite-View Air SyncHD New Arrival! brite-View "Air SyncHD" (BV-2322) Wireless 1080p HD Video/ Audio Transmission Kit(for my DirectTV receiver) and I'm satisfied with both of them so far though with limited time of ownership.
Asus WiCast is pretty straight forward to set up, I only need to connect the transmitter to my laptop and connect the receiver to the projector and it's done, it wirelessly streams everything on my laptop screen to the projector and then on the projection screen. The quality of signals and transmission are great (but probably it's designed for in-room usage only so there's limitation of the distance and the penetration. I tried to connect it to the DirecTV receiver but the signal got choppy after the wall in between even it's within 30 feet).
brite-View Air SyncHD works just like it should be, I connect the transmitter to DirectTV receiver (and connect the HDMI output of the transmitter with HDTV to pass through the signals) and also connect the receiver to my 2nd TV in other room within 30 feet. The quality of HD A/V signals and transmission are great too, only it takes a bit longer to synchronize. The penetration is great without any delay and I can control the DirectTV receiver in other room with its IR sensor/extender.
I really like these two products and the WHDI technology really works great. I review both of them is to provide information and reference for those who are also looking for wireless HD solutions and you can decide which one is most suitable for your situation. Hopefully it helps!

Nyrius NY-GS3200 5.8GHz 6 Channel Wireless Audio/Video Sender Transmitter & Receiver System with IR Remote Extender Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This product is the best consumer product available for this type of A/V transmission. Using the 5.8MHz band keeps it free of the dreaded microwave oven interference, as well as interference from most cordless telephones. The picture is good, though not perfect. But it's more than adequate for all but the largest TVs (great for a kitchen-sized screen). Be sure to experiment with all four channels to find the one that works best.
The only glitch I have found is with the power. Occasionally the A/V link would fail and I would have to restart either the sender or the receiver, depending on which one failed. Also, occasionally the channel selection would change spontaneously on one unit or the other, thus breaking the link. I solved both of these problems by installing small APC battery backups on both sender and receiver unit. I think electrical storms were at the root of both problems. Since then, I haven't had a single recurrence. I've used these units now for over two years.
We don't use the IR link because we have a different one (made by RCA) that works well and serves other devices not connected by the AVS-5811/5813.

RF-Link AVS-5811 5.8GHz Audio and Video Transmission System with IR Repeater Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a hi-tech gadget guy who is hard to please, but this far exceeded my expectations! I have it connected from a bedroom Directv Receiver(6" from a 2.4GHZ wireless PC lan) to a kitchen 15" Magnanox LCD TV sitting 12" below a micrwave oven without interference from microwave or lan! I'm even transmitting through 6 walls and a 5 gal. metal potato chip bucket and people walking in the kitchen without affecting the picture! I was getting a super picture w/o even having 1 antenna directly facing the other antenna. I thought I was going to have to run between floors for hours until everything was aligned perfectly - it only took 15 seconds because alignment is very forgiving. Picture quality is 5 star crystal clear with no lines, static, etc. All TV channels are 5 star and the HDTV stations blew me away even though I know its not sending true HDTV though the avs-5811.
What surprised me most was that I could use my bedroom Directv remote (down in the kitchen) to change channels (up in the bedroom) by simply pointing at the (kitchen)avs-5811 receiver. It sends the remote control signal upstairs to a "mouse" that you place in front of your TV receiver, cable box, etc, IR sensor. I had a spare remote so I keep 1 in kitchen and 1 in bedroom for convenience.
The owners manual iS POOR and doesn't tell you all this, but basically I can point the remote at the avs-5811 receiver in kitchen requesting a Directv channel change (or any other remote control function) in the upstairs bedroom. The avs-5811 transmitter in the bedroom receives the request and sends it through the "mouse" to the Directv Receiver which changes the channel as requested and the new channel video and sound is return to the kitchen! Pure magic and ingenious!
It is a very cost effective way, without losing picture quality and convenience, to avoid running cables and drill holes through my tiled walls or granite counters.

The average home entertainment system once consisted of a TV, stereo, and maybe a cable box. Now a modern system may also include a DVD player, satellite receiver, surround sound amplifier, digital video recorder, and an HD tuner, along with a PC designed to serve as a digital hub for certain audio/video functions. The RF Link AVS-5811 takes A/V technology to the next logical step by wirelessly transmitting audio and video signals from these components to any nearby TV, monitor, or stereo system, letting you enjoy vivid video and hi-fi stereo sound anywhere in the house. The A/V sender effectively lets you send signals to components located upstairs, several rooms away, or elsewhere without running bulky, space-consuming cables in the walls or under the floorboards. With the AVS-5811, viewers can watch simultaneous DVD or satellite programming on upstairs and downstairs TVs, or listen to their favorite tunes on stereos in three different rooms--all without wires. They can also use the sender to watch live video from a camcorder or CCD camera in a remote location, whether for security or entertainment purposes. Users who edit video or capture footage from TV programs on their computers will also find plenty to like about the device, as they can easily send the video from their Macs or PCs directly to a living room TV for viewing.
The AVS-5811 comes with a 5.8 GHz wireless transmitter and a receiver with four selectable channels. Unlike more common 2.4 GHz transmitters, the AVS-5811 doesn't share a band with Bluetooth devices, cordless phones, 801.11b wireless LAN networks, and microwave ovens, ensuring a sharp, interference-free video signal. The four channels are also a bonus, as it lets users set up multiple transmitters and receivers in the same area without cross-channel noisiness. In addition, the sender includes a built-in IR remote extender that controls components from a distance, so a user can mute the bedroom TV while relaxing on the living room sofa, for instance. The sender features an NTSC/PAL video system and transmits to distances as great as 400 feet without obstructions. It's also relatively compact at 6.5 by 4.13 by 10.5 inches (W x H x D).
What's in the Box Transmitter, receiver, two A/V RCA cables, two AC power adapters, IR mouse (remote extender), user's manual.
