Yeah, there's already a number of devices on the market to split that
HDMI signal, say,
ten different ways, but for those just needing a traditional 1-to-2 split,
Accell's got you covered. The UltraAV 1-2 HDMI Splitter, set to be exhibited at CEDIA, allows a "single HDMI audio / video source to send an audio / video signal to two devices." The wee box handles resolutions up to 1080p, can be daisy-chained to play with more than two displays, supports HDCP, but isn't marked as being HDMI 1.3-compliant. 'Course, the respectable $119.99 pricetag may be low enough to win you over, anyway.
ATEN has just announced a new pair of HDMI splitters, the VS182 (2-port) and VS184 (4-port). Both units are fully compatible with HDMI 1.3b and HDCP 1.1 specifications, and each box can send one source of HD video up to 20-meters to two / four displays at the same time. You can also count on Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio signals being piped out along with imagery, and those looking to do huge, huge things will love to hear that the splitters "are an extremely scalable solution with the capability to send signals to up to 64 displays when installed in a cascade." Both devices are ready to be purchased as we speak for £69.90 ($139) / £119.90 ($239).
