  I need something switches 2x HDMI ports.

  So imagine I have 2 PCs both with 2 monitors. I want a switch that accepts 4 inputs (2 each) and 2 HDMI outputs.

  Does this exist?

    Yes, you're looking for a '4x2 HDMI Matrix'. You can pick them up from AliExpress for around $60 to $100. I've got one for a home theatre setup, outputting to a TV and projector. It generally works well, but I sometimes get issues with the device-ID signal causing problems with resolution or colour format. That probably wouldn't be a problem for a PC setup, so you should be fine.

  It's called a KVM, they tend to be pricey but are very convenient.

    Also KVM compatibility isn't guaranteed. Coworker got a 2x4k KVM but it didn't work with whatever model of the Macbook. Got it from Officeworks so that's an easy return.

  Why does it need a battery if it is connected to power?

    Because without a battery, the included remote would be completely useless 👍

  I was looking into a KVM switch as I'm using my existing two screens for my work laptop at home which is using a ThinkPad dock.
  I want my gaming PC to be setup to these screens without having to constantly change the DisplayPort between work laptop and PC. Can anyone recommend a fix for this? Is KVM switch the way to go and any help finding a decently priced one?

  I have one screen that supports 144Hz as well which I had a feeling might get muddied with a KVM.

    It's not a hardware solution but I just remote into my work pc (locally) from my home pc because I got so sick of cable swapping.

      lilchonk on 12/05/2021 - 14:10

      That's a pretty good idea actually except I can't add any software without admin rights on the work PC unfortunately.

        Yeah that can be annoying. Fortunately our IT were happy enough to enable it for me once I explained why. It also means I can leave the laptop at work for scheduled updates and access it.

    Have you got other inputs you can use on the screens ?

    I use one machine via DisplayPort and one via HDMI 2.0 into my 4K screen - so to switch between them, I just change the input on the screen's menu.

      lilchonk on 12/05/2021 - 14:11

      I do and have tried to with one of the screens but for some reason it just chooses not to display anything or has a little hissy fit. I might give it another go and see how that goes. Cheers.

  I have this to switch between PS5 and Google TV Chromecast thing so I can 4K HDR since my TV only has one "Enhanced Port" (the other is used for Arc).
  It works welll, but is a little buggy with the CEC side of things, but otherwise, everything works ok with it.
