HDMI splitter

I’ve heard that there can be problems using a HDMI splitter if it can’t strip HDCP has anyone had any experience s with this I just want to have a dedicated HDMI cord coming out of my Wally to use when I take tv outside that way I won’t have to unhook everything and bring it outside I was planning on using a cheap 1 input 2 output splitter with one HDMI hooked to living room tv and one hooked to outside tv and both hooked to Wally receiver

You need to buy a quality HDMI splitter with HDCP support from Amazon. Make sure it has HDCP support... I've had trouble with the passthrough versions.

I use this splitter in my RV using Dish for watching both inside and outside tv. It is powered, so you need a/c power for it. Been using this for a year now with no problems.

How much did you spend on your trailer? Seems pretty cheap to have TV ! Thats the cost of 2 luxurious nights at a KOA.

This HDMI splitter from Amazon works great. I use it to send HDMI signal to 3 locations.

Also got this HDMI switch to allow me to switch between BluRay player, FireStick or Xbox although never took XBox yet.

I use a two port to run off my laptop. Both are powered at the same time.
