Hello all. I am an electrical contractor and was wondering if anyone knew of a means by which it would be possible to have an auto-sensing A/B switch that could use the signal line voltage to make the switch relay open the B path if it sensed a signal? Ultimately then I would like it to be on a dongle with a Y-cord type of shape, the dongle being in the middle and not too fat. My purpose for this would be to send audio out of the DVD to the in-house speakers when someone watches a DVD and otherwise to have it send audio from the satellite box.
My reason for not using other boxes on the market is that they are bulky and require a "wall wart" and it seems that the switch transistor would need so little power to open the B path and close A.
