Hey guys, sorry if this is in the incorrect area, I couldn't really figure out the best place to put it so I generalised it to this section. If you have seen my other recent post it is for my build that I am going to be making soon.
My problem at hand is that I want to be able to link my Tower, Playstation & Virgin Media TiVo box. I want to be able to choose between either one of the three inputs and be able display the output on my Monitor and/or my TV screen, so that I can either be laying in bed doing one of the 3 things or else I can sit at my PC and do one of the three (Or if I upgrade to dual screen I can have my TiVo on next to me whilst gaming).
Hopefully that description is enough for you to comprehend what I want am going to try an achieve. And now to my question which may be rubbish but if you don't understand what I mean just ask and I can try and describe it better.
Q: If I was to purchase a splitter box, would I be required to buy a box with HDMI Input 1, 2 & 3 with a HDMI Output 1 & 2 or would it have to be the other way around? I am trying to shop around to find a good splitter that will be a worth whilst investment for myself.
Hopefully this drawing will help give a vague idea of what I want:
