    I want to duplicate the display on my PC onto my TV. I already have a dual monitor setup, one HDMI and one DVI. I want to split the signal from the HDMI and have it display on my TV also. Can this be done ok?

    It can be, it's a box though not a straight cable. Used such things a lot in my last job to set up walls of TVs and Monitors for sale

    Guys can anyone link me to something on ebay that will effectively split/duplicate my hdmi signal to both my monitor and my tv? Most I find only split to one at a time. Thanks

    If you can wait 2 weeks

    No doubt can be found on ebay somewhere, but will probably ship from HK anyways.

    Thanks that looks great. I'm not in any hurry so thats grand. About €22 which is not too bad. This needs to be plugged in, do I need a US adaptor or will it come with one?

    A USB to DC adapter might well power it too, cant tell from the spec as its chingrish but if the draw is low(we know its 5v like USB) then that'd be enough. Could be handy if your TV has USB ports to spare.
