y-splitter - Blu-ray Forum

mikesaywhat · 04-22-2008, 05:26 PM

Hey all...Does anyone know of any good sites to go for purchasing y-splitters so I can connect my pc to both my computer monitor and hdtv? I am having trouble finding one that is long enough (at least 3 ft) and of good quality (most reviewers say that the quality is not so good when connecting both...can this even be prevented?)...any help would be nice...thanks in advance...

You need to buy a powered swtichbox. A y-splitter will introduce too much signal degradation

thanks for the heads up...can you provide additional information as to where to buy this and the items available?

Don't know what you intend to view, but you won't be able to watch blu ray if you have both screens connected.
