Will this work to connect 2 TV's to 1 Dish cable box? I bought a HDM1 Splitter and 50 foot HDM1 cable. But that doesn't work. Dish says I need another boxand pay $12 more a month

Yes this will work. I have 1 box, and 2 tvs One has a 3ft hdmi, and the other is 50ft as well.

I used this to send my Directv picture to a main and a remote set. I also used a 50" HDMI cable. Works perfectly. Remember, both get the same channel.
879186
Yes I it will work (that is why I got mine), however you won't be able to watch a different program on both tvs. They will both be on the same station at the same time.
879187
Yes, that is exactly what I use it for. Same channel, two displays. Rf remotes so I can change from both locations.

This unit will not do what you want. It will allow a single cable to carry the satellite signal that goes between the dish and the satellite set top box plus one of almost any other TV or FM signal. The second signal can come from the output of a set top box, from cable tv or from an FM or DTV antenna. You generally need two of these, one to combine the signals on one end of the single cable and another to separate the two signals on the other end. If you are trying to combine DTV with the signal coming directly from the cable company, I don't know of a way to do that. Both signals are in the same frequency range so you would need an RF A-B switch to manually switch from one cable to another. http://www.amazon.com/RCA-VH71-Slide-Switch/dp/B00009W3F2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1393281571&sr=8-1&keywords=RF+A-B+switch. If you are wanting to combine analog Channel 3 or 4 from the output of a cable box with the DTV signal, that can generally be done with a UHF/VHF combiner used to combine a VHF antenna with a UHF antenna. The DTV would go to the UHF input and the set top box would go to the VHF. http://www.amazon.com/Radioshack-Combiner-150-2586-Gold-Plated-Connectors/dp/B001VLPQ6K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1393281247&sr=8-2&keywords=uhf%2Fvhf+combiner.

no. this splitter starts at one source and goes to two different tvs. not one tv to two different sources.sorry. i will say that product is out there. make sure you have good hdmi cables.

Buy the bigger kit. I believe that allows more than one additional tv to be connected. I think it's a big price jump to though. How many tvs are you trying to connect to one source.

I purchased for similar problem, did not work for me either, even with a splitter. If you find a way for this to work, I'd like to know

Yes and No. This device is used to provide inputs to tuner #1 and tuner #2 of a satelite reciever using only one coax cable from the dish antenna. The satelite reciever I have has outputs for two televisions and they can both be watching different channels. This device is not a signal "splitter" to hook two televisions to one antenna. I hope this helps and I have made myself clear on this. If not let me know!

THIS IS NOT A SPLITTER. a splitter takes one devies ie, cable box and splits it on 2 or more outputs. ie 1 hdmi IN and 2 hdmi OUT..... THIS IS A SWITCH. hence it switches. it has 3 hdmi IN and 1 hdmi OUT that you manually switch the sources

This splitter can not do what you're attempting; this splitter is in the opposite direction. It will take one input and split it into two outputs. What you need is an HDMI switcher box (i.e. multiple inputs to one output). Hope this helps.

Yes that will work. I now have my signal split 4 ways near the cable box and then 2 ways later in the house and the do not see degradation in the signal. I have both the 2-port and 4-port version of this product. I can watch 4 TVs all with the same picture. There may be slight delay in showing the picture as the HDMI synchronizes but once complete it works flawlessly.

This is a splitter, which will only branch the same image to both of your TVs. What you're looking for is an HDMI Switcher that has one HDMI in and 2 HDMI outs. Switchers come with a button or switch on the box that usually change the setting between sending out through port 1 or port 2, and sometimes come with the option of both ports or neither port. Switchers can also be found with remote controls. I have a Sewell Direct Ibis, which I believe will do exactly what you want, although it does not come with a remote control. The Ibis is also available in a 1x3 if that interests you more than the 1x2. I hope this helps.

In theory, yes, as that is what powered HDMI splitters are supposed to do...take the original signal and amplify it so a clean signal gets to multiple devices. In practice there are sometimes problems when connecting to equipment that is several years old as they may not have implemented the later HDMI standards. For instance, I wanted to send HDMI to a new tv at the end of a 50 ft hdmi cable as well as a four year old 'smart tv' adjacent to the dish receiver. Both tvs would get the same channel although only one would be turned on. The splitter worked fine for the newer tv, but the older one would never have audio UNTIL power was cycled on the splitter. I tried several splitters .... all exhibited the same symptom. Apparently the older tv didn't have the same interface standards as the newer so I do not think ANY splitter would have worked as I intended. Bottom line is you just have to try it. Chances are it will work.

OH,, If your trying ti run more then one tv, you may need a VIP 222K instead of the VIP 211K.. ask your sales personor call Disk Network the will help you Of course there are for DISH network ok *9038216520)

It might depend on the cable length that you want to buy. I bought 35' cables, which is stretching the limit of HDMI signal strength. If your splitter cuts the signal strength in half, then this cable might not work. If the splitter also boosts the signal, then it might work fine.

I can only say it does not work with Dish Network, I have not tried it with any other provider. To me it was a complete waste of money, and I suggest spending a little more to get a better system. You get what you pay, and sometimes not even that.

I'm not sure how it would work for you, I have old and new equipment I'm using together. The monitor 1 & 2 is for the monitors. I ran cable from the unit Monitor 1 to a splitter(?) and from the unit monitor 2 to the splitter then from the one side of the splitter ran cable to the DVR so i have 1 monitor in 1 room and the other monitor in another room. (You need long cable of course) but it works. Doing it this way, both monitors show the same view. My monitors are the flat screen tvs that have cable/hdmi/computer availability. They are both the cheapest brands, but work great. Hope this helps. I'm not sure how it would work for you, I have old and new equipment I'm using together. The monitor 1 & 2 is for the monitors.

Should work fine. It is the same signal going thru splitter to both TV's. This Splitter has worked fine for me with TV's in Living Room and Bedroom. Can have both on or just one. Picture quality no different than without splitter.

I'm not sure because my computer already had HDMI port and it work fine. By the way, this Splitter use to display to more monitors with 1 input source. I think you need to buy a HDMI switcher so you can connect your computer, your TV cable, and another source . HDMI switcher got only 1 output to 1 TV. I hope this will help.
