Sky HD on 2 screens

Is there a way to have the HDMI output from my SkyHD box on 2 screens at the same time?
Actually probably will never be used at the same time but I don't want use a switcher

I can output to two screens with my amp.

You can also use a HDMI splitter, I've got a 4 way one and drive 3 screens at the same time.

Which make of splitter do you have?

It's for a plasma TV and a monitor, the monitor is connected with a 10m cable

I have Denon AV amp and feed the 1st HDMI output to the main TV and the 2nd output, via a 15m HDMI cable, to a Cablesson® - 4 Way Smart HDMI SPLITTER BOX. I then have 5m and 3m cables to 2 more TVs.

You might argue that's not 3 then

Only 2 off the splitter.

I'm sure you'll have done this already, right? .... But make sure that the monitor can accept the interlaced (1080i) signal from the Sky box, and also that it is happy with a 50Hz refresh rate rather than the more usual 60Hz from a PC. A PC monitor might be fussy about accepting anything other than a progressive signal e.g. 1080p
