  • Two projectors hdmi split/switch?

    I am doing some remodelling in my sim and thinking of going with two projectors. One for golf and one for movies. Wondering about the best way to do the hdmi connections?
    Today i have one projector and a screen (extended display). I have one built in hdmi cable going to the projector.

    I would like to have a hdmi switch at the ceiling that won't require any manual tampering or perhaps with a remote? The optimal would be a switch that is reconized as a screen by the pc so the sound and display settings would be unaffected. Is this even possible?
    Any tips on the best way to do this?

    I have a two projector setup with a tv over the bar. I bought a marantz av receiver with a second zone that outputs only to the golf projector. That way if I want to have the pga or any other sporting event in the background I can send my source to the bar tv.

    A few issue that going the two projector route creates is system control and Ac equipment. storage. How many remotes do you want to mess with and where will you store the AV equipment?

    Another issue is screens. I have the straight from the mill screen which is awesome, but it is not the quality of a medium range av screen. I did a double screen setup that works really well and I can swap between video and golf mode in about 60 seconds if I hustle.

    I hope this helps. All I know is it took months of planning to iron out a lot of the design issues.

        None yet. I dropped my Panasonic PT-VZ 580 and it broke so that's why i'm thinking of redoing some stuff
