TIMBOOTECH Wireless HDMI Transmitter and Receiver 820FT, Up to 8 Receivers, KVM, IR Remote, HDMI Loop Out, 5.8G HDMI Wireless Extender Live Streaming 1080P Video & Audio to TV/Projector/Monitor

Please note -- I purchased both the AIMIBO version of this product and the TIMBOOTECH version. They are EXACTLY THE SAME PRODUCT (as of November 2023), and they can even work together! I am actually using both simultaneously to type up this review.~~~~~~~~~~~~Let me start by describing my situation.I have 2 computers - a work computer and a personal computer, that I use. For both devices, I am doing work that makes the fan run at max speed, and is extremely noisy. Because of this, working in the evening is simply not an option, because both computers just end up waking everyone up.With this product, that is no longer a problem. I can keep both of my computers in the basement, using them while I am on the 2nd floor of the house. As a fair warning though, since the signal is being obstructed, 2 floors is about the limit of what this device is capable of transmitting through with a good signal. Of course, with no obstructions, the distance is much further.The thing I love the most about this product is that it allows me to not only stream the computer screen, but I can plug in my keyboard and mouse and send inputs back down to the computer!Here is how the product works.There is a Receiver (known as RX) and a Transmitter (known as TX). The RX is what you plug into your monitor/tv/etc. RX receives the picture from the TX, which you plug into your computer/video-game-console/cable-box/etc. TX transmits the picture to the RX. It does a good job of receiving and transmitting. The picture is clear, and the response time is fast. However, it is not immediate -- there are 5-10 frames of delay. Because there is a small amount of delay, you can't easily play very fast paced games like shooters or action games. But anything that can afford to have 5-10 frames of delay should be just fine with this. Please keep that in mind if you intend for this product to be used for video games.There's also 2 different modes -- SW Mode (1 RX. 1-7 TX's) and SP Mode (1-7 RX's, 1 TX).SP Mode is the simple one -- you can transmit the picture from one device to multiple RX's. As other reviews have mentioned, this is great for security camera set ups, or a baby monitor, or a theater/classroom/church with multiple duplicated monitors/screens.SW Mode is a little more complex. For the rest of the review, I will be speaking about the capabilities of SW Mode.But I need to emphasize this --- what really sets this product apart from the competition is the special features added onto SW Mode.* In SW Mode, you can plug in your Keyboard and Mouse to your RX, and then it will control whatever is plugged into the TX! Again, there is a little delay (5-10 frames), so that is something to get used to. But that is a small cost. Remember, I am controlling my computer in the basement while I am on the 2nd floor of my house! I am typing this review now using this method!* In SW Mode, you can plug in your headphones to an aux dongle on the RX, and it will receive audio from the TX! Please note, I think this only works for headphones. I don't think this works for microphones or headsets. I have tried, and I feel like it should be possible, but no success thus far.* In SW Mode, you can plug in an IR Receiver to the RX, and it will duplicate the signal to an IR Repeater on the TX. What this means is that, if you have a tv remote or another device that shoots an IR beam, you can control your tv with the remote while being far away from the tv! I use this too -- I have another, wired HDMI switch, so that I can switch between my 2 computers. Basically, I plug in this switch into the TX, and then plug my 2 computers into the switch. From there, I can work on one computer, and when I need to switch to another, I use my remote control from the 2nd floor of the house, it sends an IR signal to the HDMI Switch, and then it switches to my other computer! I also have a USB switch that works the same way, so that I can transfer keyboard and mouse control the same way too. Please note, you must buy your own HDMI Switch and USB Switch if you want to do what I am doing -- 2 computers connected to 1 TX. Or you could just buy 2 TX's, but that is unnecessary if both computers are right next to each other. 2 TX's are needed when the computers are in 2 separate locations far from each other. For example, computer 1 is on floor 1, computer 2 is on floor 2, and the RX is on floor 3. In that case, you are forced to buy an extra TX to accommodate.Now, these are all nice features, but there are some caveats.The keyboard and mouse is a nice touch, but please note that they don't quite work as normal once the signal is sent over the wire. For example, I have a trackpad mouse where 2 finger swipe up scrolls down normally. But when I do it while connected to the RX, 2 finger swipe up scrolls up! Very weird. And my keyboard has more ghost keys when connected to the RX compared to when it is plugged in directly to the computer.The IR feature is wonderful, but it is a little inconsistent. Sometimes, I point and press the button, and the signal transfers easily. Other times, the signal is inconsistent. They key is to have your IR Repeater (the one connected to the TX) placed directly facing whatever it is that you wish to shoot an IR signal to. And when I say facing, I mean that the rounded face should be pointing towards your target. Do it that way and you will get better results, but it still won't be 100% consistent. Some days, I have to press the button for 10 seconds before it registers. Normally, I would take away a star for that, but frankly, the keyboard and mouse feature makes up for this.Another annoying caveat -- you can plug in the keyboard and mouse to the RX side, but sometimes, it takes a second for the devices to register. It's almost as if you need to let them be plugged in for a minute or 2 before they get recognized. Same goes for the headphones.I also want to add, customer support is excellent. This is actually my second product, but the first one I had had issues with the USB port (for connecting keyboard and mouse). Tech support (support@aimibo.tv, yes, even though the company is called timbootech, they are the same tech support as aimibo) responded quickly and sent me a replacement free! Since then, I have had little to no trouble, as mentioned above. Thank you again Beryl!So, in conclusion, this product is plain and simple, the best value option on Amazon, as of November 2023 when I got this. No other option had all the functionality in one product (except AIMIBO, but AIMIBO and TIMBOOTECH are the same company, so that doesn't count). And not a single option gave me the ability to plug in a keyboard and mouse. This product is high quality, it's cutting edge for what is available on Amazon, and it puts the competition to shame. I will only ever buy products like this from TIMBOOTECH/AIMIBO! I would encourage you to do the same too!

Did the initial setup and got everything running. Did a few tests with a cheap dvd player. The transmitter and receiver worked okay. However, my original intention was to connect to the hdmi connection of a cat5 extender that goes to the main screen for the security cameras in my office so I could have an additional screen on one of the monitors directly at my desk. I switched out cables from that box just to make sure everything was fine. While the extender box can still directly connect to the main screen (tv on back wall), every time I tried connecting it to the input on the transmitter, the receiver's menu screen would just say "No HDMI signal". The transmitter could not even output it back to the tv with the loop output connection. Unless there is an adapter or something I can put between the extender box's output and the transmitter's input to fix the problem, this transmitter/receiver will unfortunately be useless for my purposes. **EDIT: I finally got it working with what I originally intended it for. But, I had to use two separate adapters to get the thing to accept the extender box's hdmi signal. It was a pain in the ***. But, I finally got it working.

I have a portable camera rig with 3 HDMI video cameras on it. I started with one of these, then added another, and eventually bought a 3rd one. I often have to take video when the camera rig is out of sight of the receivers - sometimes as much as 200 feet away through a wall - and have not had any issues. I can't say the same of the competing products I used to use.When I bought my 3rd set of these, they were conflicting with one another and causing some lag and disconnects. Customer service promptly worked with me and solved the problem.The quality is great; the latency is low; the price is right. These are perfect.

picture is good , no mouse control , units are within inches ."Mouse does not transmit. the same problem with clearclick, wireless & io gear. looks like they are all copies the same program. does any mouse work on any unit ?" service response ."Dear customer, you can connect a mouse for this HDMI kit. But please connect a USB cable on your transmitter and laptop first, then connect a mouse on receiver's USB port. Then you could remote control your laptop on receiver side."

I purchased this product to solve a connection issue where the TV was across the room from the CATV connection with no way to do a wired connection. I had been using a video over Ethernet but when the flooring was replaced and I couldn't hide the wire anymore.The video source is a TiVo. I chose this product based on the features. It wirelessly connects the TiVo to the TV and passes IR remote control signals back to the TiVo.The installation is easy. From box to connection in under 15 minutes. The video quality is excellent, and functionality is as expected. Once installed, it basically disappears.I had a support question and the response came sooner than I expected. I would buy this product or other products from this vendor again.
