Can I use HDMI splitter for TV?

Simple! All you need is a 1x2 HDMI splitter and the HDMI cables to run out to your devices. The Blu-ray player will plug into the HDMI splitter, and the HDMI splitter will plug into both televisions.

Which is better AUX or optical?

There will not be any significant difference. As we have said that AUX is susceptible to line loss and interference, you may not get clear sound performance. On the contrary, an optical connection can provide better channel separation and superior spatial quality.

Can I use HDMI and optical audio at the same time?

In some cases, if your TV allows you to send two audio signals at the same time, one cable needs to transmit audio while the other will pass on the video signal. So, you can use the optical cable for the audio signal and then insert HDMI, which will transmit video.

Is audio Out Same as optical?

The audio signal stays in a digital format using either of these cables. The differences between the two connections are as follows: A Digital Optical connection uses a fiber optic cable. The digital audio bit stream is transmitted using pulses of light through this optical cable.

How does a TV splitter work?

As the name implies, a coax signal splitter takes the power on the input port and splits it equally among the output ports. For example, a 2-way splitter has one input port and two output ports. It sends half the power of the input signal to one of the output ports. The other half is sent to the other output port.

Do optical splitters degrade audio?

As long as the splitter does not degrade the light signal enough to cause dropouts or something obvious, it should work fine. Since it's digital, it will be the same data going to both sound systems.

Is audio splitter good?

Audio splitters are useful for sharing music or using different systems for audio. Whether that's sharing music on a date, watching a movie with someone while traveling, or for what creative reason you might need dual audio output, the audio splitter market won't be going anywhere.

Can you get Dolby Atmos through optical?

Digital optical doesn't support Dolby Atmos because it can't transmit the Dolby Digital Plus or Dolby TrueHD audio codecs (both of which can contain Dolby Atmos audio). Digital optical cables only support up to 5.1 channels of audio. HDMI is the only method to send/receive signals with Dolby Atmos.

Is Dolby Atmos better than optical?

Most soundbars support less than 5.1 channels of audio, so in terms of audio quality, there isn't really a difference. But if your soundbar supports more than 5.1 channels of audio, Dolby Atmos and/or DTS:X, then a digital optical cable will severely limit the audio quality of the system.

Is optical cable worse than HDMI?

Both cables can be had pretty cheap. The biggest difference is that HDMI can pass higher-resolution audio, including the formats found on streaming services such as Dolby Atmos and DTS HD Master Audio. These formats can't be transmitted across optical. In terms of simplicity, HDMI also passes video signals.
