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)

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

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.

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

Have been using since couple of days with jio set-top-box and JBL Sb510 3.1 soundbar (via optic cable). As most of streaming platforms use Dobly Digital Plus for atmos, I am able to get the 5.1, atoms badge on OTT with this. Although product looks premium, compact, easy to fit and use, need to see how long does it last. Functions as what is promises to deliver. Even with all these, the price looks on expensive side.

​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!

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.

I purchased this product to connect my Sony HT S40 R 5.1 home theatre with my mac mini M4 but the product doesn't work, I have ordered a replacement that also same issue so I returned the product Bad experience

My home theatre setup consist of a 12 year old Denon AV Receiver and a projector that supports FHD. Over the years, the usage of multiple input sources such as DVD, Blu-Ray, Play Station & Nintendo ( children grew up) became less and less in usage and all the entertainment is now streamed through an Amazon Fire Stick. Recently, when my 12 year old projector finally quit working, I upgraded to a 4K projector and a 4K Fire Stick. With my Denon AVR supporting only 1080P, I first tried plugging the Fire Stick directly to the projector and use ARC through the 30 Feet HDMI cable to get audio through my Denon AVR. While this worked, the audio fidelity and level was very disappointing - maybe because of the 30 feet length of the HDMI cable from the projector to the AVR. Hence purchased the OREI 4K audio extractor from Amazon. Delivery: 5 Stars ( same day) Performance: 4 Stars Video: 5 Stars With the Amazon fire stick connected directly to the OREI Audio extractor, and the video signals pushed through the 30 feet HDMI cable to my projector, there is no noticeable picture quality degradation as compared to plugging the Fire stick directly to the projector. Audio: 4 Stars With the optical out from the OREI connected to my Denon AVR, the sound fidelity and levels are good and resolved my problem with the ARC. 4 Stars because there is still a very little bit but perceivable drop in audio fidelity and levels as compared to direct HDMI input to my AVR, but it’s almost 90% there. Overall, very happy with the device.

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 had a problem that I think a lot of people run into — my son wanted to use his PS5 with a monitor that didn’t have built-in speakers. We quickly realised that while the picture looked great, we couldn’t hear a thing. After some research, I learned we needed an HDMI splitter with audio output, and after spending about an hour comparing different models, I settled on this one. The price was fair and the reviews looked promising. When it arrived, setup was simple but you do need to be aware of one thing: you’ll need an extra HDMI cable. The HDMI cable that normally goes from the PS5 to the monitor instead goes into this box, and then you’ll need a second HDMI cable to run from the box to the monitor. For audio, just plug a pair of speakers into the 3.5mm jack, and you’re good to go. Once connected, it worked perfectly. The sound came through instantly, there was no lag, and the picture quality stayed the same. I tucked the box away behind the desk, and now my son has a proper gaming station with both video and sound. It’s been running without any issues and feels like a neat, permanent solution. If you’ve got a console or device you want to hook up to a monitor without speakers, this is exactly what you need. Simple, affordable, and it just works. Highly recommended.

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.
