TV's only have one DVI/HDMI port. Are you constantly unhook HDMI cable from console to console whenever you want to play another a different console? or did you find some way to play on multiple consoles without having to unplug HDMI/DVI cable?

Not all of them. My main TV has three HDMI ports. Right now I only have two HDMI cables, and one of them is for my cable box, so I do have to switch the HDMI between my consoles when I want to play a different one. I don't see the big deal, it only takes like 10 seconds at most.

Maybe yours. My TV has 3 HDMI ports.

And more than one TV is "TVs", not "TV's". Why do people insist on using apostrophes for plurals?

There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".
There is "would've", "should've" and "could've".

mine samsung has 1 STB and 1 DVI port. I have my Wii U and PS4 hooked up. I don't know the difference, but playing an HD game on Wii U through the STB port has ghosting and some blurriness when things move quickly. anyone know why?

I remember being upset when my new TV had three HDMI inputs instead of four.

One HDMI input sounds like a nightmare. Tell me it's not true.

Mine has two HDMI ports. No DVI, though. What a weird assumption that all TVs only have one HDMI port.
