Now here is a great hardware hack. Build a cheap (about $1 per input) A/V switch with as many inputs as you like.
The link comes from Hack A Day, a great hardware hacking site.
I’m going to have to build one of these.
Although I can already think of some hacks to improve it. They are using on-off push buttons, so you have to turn off each input to switch to another. With some latches or flip-flops you should be able to use momentary push buttons.
Also a copper perf board of some sort would clean up the wiring quite a bit.
Gee, with all the spare time I have…
