Summary: Didn't Work at all
Comment: I have a receiver with one optical input and purchased this in order to use my Satellite receiver and my Xbox 360 optical audio. Didn't work. I can see some red light coming through, but apparently not enough for my receiver.

Summary: Works fine for game systems
Comment: Using as an auto-switch for the Xbox 360 and PS3. At first one of the connections was spotty and I had to hold the unit just right to get a solid connection. I thought I had been scammed and that the negative reviews were right.
BUT then I did some troubleshooting and I found that only one of my input cables created a problem. I don't know for sure if this cable is bad or if the switch is more sensitive than most, but the cables were dirt cheap and I had a spare. After substituting the spare everything worked perfectly. Good deal!

Summary: The one from Parts Express is truly Bi-directional (works as a switch)
Comment: Buy the one from Parts Express here on Amazon. I noticed that some of the other companies have a Disclaimer stating: "This is a Splitter, this is not a switch", but not Parts Express, so if you want to make sure it will work as a switch buy the one from Parts Express. When the package arrives it is clearly labeled with a sticker that says "Bi-directional" meaning you can use it as a splitter or as a switch. I also bought it and it works for me fine as a "switch". I have both our xbox 360 and our ps3 bluray optical cables going into the 2 inputs and then I have the 1 output otical cable going into our receiver and it works perfect. It switches back and forth (xbox360 and ps3) depending on the device that you are using, i.e., depending the device that is turned on. If they run into a conflict because you forgot to turn one off or the like...all you do is turn them both off and then turn the one you want to use on again and you're good to go.

Summary: Worked for a while then died
Comment: This product worked for about 7 months then I started to get horrible static. I took it out and did a direct connection and the static stopped. The funny thing is that I hadn't used it for a few months. The last time I used it the thing worked great then the other day it decided to stop functioning.
