Full details

The Lindy HDMI 4K Audio Extractor (Model 38167) is designed for users needing to separate audio from an HDMI signal for use with non-HDMI audio devices while simultaneously routing the video to a 4K display. It offers a key benefit of enabling seamless integration of modern HDMI sources with older or specialized audio systems, though it is limited to 30Hz refresh rates at its maximum resolution. This device supports various digital and analog audio outputs and passes through HDCP 1.4 and CEC signals.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum video resolution and refresh rate supported?

The extractor supports resolutions up to 4096x2160 at 30Hz (4K@30Hz) with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling (8-bit). It does not support higher refresh rates like 60Hz at 4K.

Can this device split one HDMI input into two HDMI outputs?

No, this device is an audio extractor. It has one HDMI input and one HDMI output for video pass-through. Its primary function is to extract audio, not to split video to multiple displays.

What audio formats are supported?

It supports LPCM, Dolby Digital 2/5.1, and DTS-HD audio formats. This ensures compatibility with a wide range of sound systems.

How is the device powered?

The extractor is powered via a 5.5/2.1mm DC jack and typically uses the included DC to USB Type-A cable to draw power from a USB port on a connected source or display device, or a USB power adapter.

Does it support the latest HDCP version?

This model supports HDCP version 1.4. It is not compatible with HDCP 2.2 or higher.

What is the purpose of the EDID switch?

The EDID switch allows you to control which audio information (Extended Display Identification Data) the extractor passes to the source device, helping to ensure compatibility with your connected audio system.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Lindy HDMI 4K Audio Extractor comes with a 2-year warranty.

Troubleshooting

No audio output

Verify all audio cable connections. Ensure the correct audio output port (Optical, L/R) is used and connected to the appropriate input on your audio device. Check the EDID switch setting on the extractor. Confirm the audio source device is outputting audio via HDMI.

No video output

Ensure the HDMI cable connecting to the display is secure at both ends. Check if the display is set to the correct HDMI input. Verify that the source device is outputting video. Confirm the extractor is receiving power.

Poor audio/video quality (stuttering, artifacts)

Try a different, high-quality HDMI cable. Ensure the HDMI source and display support the selected resolution and refresh rate. Check if the USB power source provides sufficient power. If using multiple devices, ensure they meet the specifications.

CEC control not working

Ensure CEC is enabled on both the source device and the display. Verify that the CEC pass-through setting on the extractor is correctly configured (if applicable, though this model implies pass-through is always active). Test CEC directly between source and display without the extractor.

Connect the included DC to USB Type-A cable to the DC-in jack on the extractor and plug the USB Type-A end into a suitable USB power source (e.g., USB port on display/source device, USB power adapter).
Use the EDID switch to select the desired audio output mode.
