msgreenf Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Hey guys,I have a TV with a DVI port and a DVD player with HDMI...so I have a DVI to HDMI cable and I made a DVI to HDMI fake switch. But I can't get the TV to change to the right source. What Am i missing? I have the tv connected to switch --> Switch connected to player.Player turns on and IR to player works, but TV doesn't change inputs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil12011 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Make sure the TV is the "video end point". Post your project if you don't know what I'm talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 It is the video endpoint, it works for all other sources to the TV. I also have a tivo and xbmc box connected that both switch to the correct inputs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyknight Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Driver likely does not have conversion set.Try attached driverEdit or not as attachement are of course not working.I'll send if you PMOr check your driver and see if "can convert signals" is checked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Conversion is enabled but I have seen where updating drivers don't work properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 And I know conversion is working because when I had it turned off the source didn't show up under watch menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Before the updated driver actually gets updated, you'll have to pwercycle the controller for it to load properly. Or just delete and add new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msgreenf Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Any ideas in how to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Well did you do the above? Rebooting at this point, or just adding a new instance of the driver should fix it still.You could also look at the tv driver and make sure the ir/macro for that input is accurate.

msgreenf Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 I am going to check the macro for that input. This is a standard C4 driver but it doesn't even send IR when that input is selected....so it might be that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 It was a problem with the TV Driver! IT was a c4 driver so I didn't even think to check, but sure enough, there was no macro attached to that video input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
