I can't help with your current hdmi splitter issue, but I bought one of these a couple of months ago and used it to mirror my Tivo to my TV and Projector at the same time

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111976861558

it worked perfectly and for £5.99 is a bargain

now I use it for PS4 to TV+Projector

Thanks very much for the reply a think a will give it a go a was hoping there was somthing on the settings could bè altered on the tivo box for a better output the hdmi splitter ave got just now is the new one a bought for when virgin goes 4k but it is supposed to do 1080 too ave tried my old hdmi splitter that just works on 1080 it works fine on my main tv but it only works sometimes on my bedroom tv so was hoping there was somthing on the tivo that could be tweeked to give a better output

Some hdmi splitters don't work properly with 1080p even though they claim they do, I found I needed to ensure I got one that said works with PS4 - something to do with the hdmi spec. comes with a PSU but has a bright blue LED so needs a sticker to cover it :)

also, some of the cheaper ones only work on one output a time. the one i linked to can output to both at the same time.

hope it works for you

Surely something that only has one output at a time is a switch and not a splitter.

Well yes, but we are talking about sellers on ebay and you must know how unscrupulous some of them can be :)
