    My TV has only one HDMI port.
    I used some cheap 3-in/1-out HDMI switch to connect both my HDR-1100s and an Amazon Fire TV Stick (with Alexa Remote).
    The switch is rather flaky, switches over whenever it feels like it.
    Then I bought a Fosmon HDMI 2.0 5-in/1-out from Amazon-UK, hoping for better behaviour.

    But this brand-new one also has switching problems, sometimes after ony 10 minutes.
    Fosmon warranty offered to send me a free replacement, shipped from USA to Ireland, which will take 3-4 weeks.
    But I'm afraid the new one might also be problematic, plus I don't want to wait that long, and I'm also not interested in paying import duty.

    TL;DR can you recommend a properly working HDMI 2.0 Switch (3-5 in, 1-out) with a decent remote?
    It should have the option for Auto-Switching On/Off and be USB-A powered.
    I'm sure I'm not the only one needing such a switch.

    Have a look at the 'Lindy' website. I have had one of their HDMI switchers and an optical switcher for some time with no problems. They're not cheap but they have worked for me!
