Post subject: Connecting HTPC to HDTV

I have a HDTV and looking to add a HTPC or laptop with a HDMI ouput.
However I ran out of HDMI ports on my HDTV.

Later, I plan on upgrading the second TV in the guest room with HDTV.

I found some gadgets that solves these HDMI problems.

http://octavainc.com/HDMI%20switch%205port.htm (HDMI switch) allows you to switch between multiple HDMI or DVI sources to 1 HDTV.

A HDMI splitter, on the other hand, will show a HD source or computer to 2 HD monitor.


You can use a http://octavainc.com/HDMI%20distribution%20amp_splitter%202%20port.html (HDMI splitter), it has 1 input and 2 HDMI outputs that lets you mirror both pictures on both displays. You don't need to do any switching, it will just show up on both displays.
