Hi everyone,

I’m wondering if anyone has experience connecting either a Chromecast or an Apple TV directly to a Formuler Z11 Pro Max?

Right now, I’m forced to use two remotes: one for my TV and one for the Formuler. My setup is:

• Formuler Z11 connected to HDMI 1
• Chromecast connected to HDMI 2

When I cast something to the Chromecast while I’m already using the Formuler, the TV doesn’t automatically switch the input source. That means I have to grab my TV remote just to change the source, which is a bit annoying.

So I’m wondering — is there any way to link or integrate the Chromecast (or Apple TV) with the Formuler, so that it can switch sources automatically or be controlled from one remote?

(I’m aware that the BT1 remote can be used in IR mode to access TV source controls, but I don’t like how sluggish it becomes in IR mode, so that’s not really an option for me.)

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Connect z11 pro to hdmi 4! It supports 4k@120hz

3 and 4 on my lg are hdmi 2.2 and arc. And supports 4k@120hz.

Hdmi 1 and 2 not.

I find it out 2 years back. Hdmi 4 is my z11 pro max, hdmi 3 is my xbox and hdmi 2 is my raspberry pi.

Go on lg tv to settings, then search at system devices or so and then turn off hdmi cec.

I have an older model, but will give it a try later today.

Is there any difference if you swap the devices on HDMI 1 and 2?

Can you share the exact model of Chromecast you have connected?

Haven’t tried it, will do later today as well as changing the HDMI-cable completely.

Hi everyone,

I’ve connected my Formuler Z11 Pro Max to my LG Smart TV, but I’m encountering a recurring issue. About every other time I start the device, it enters a sort of bug mode where the TV rapidly switches between HDMI ports—about once per second.

To clarify: my Chromecast is connected to HDMI 1, and the Z11 Pro Max is connected to HDMI 2. When the issue occurs, the TV switches back and forth between HDMI 1 and HDMI 2 continuously.

Have anyone else encountered this issue?
