So here's my situation.

I added a TV in my master bath above the jacuzzi. Instead of running coax and needing another cable box, I want to split the HDMI from the bedroom box and run it to the bathroom TV.

Essentially the bathroom TV will display the same thing as the Bedroom, and I want to be able to use the remote in the bathroom to control the cable box in the bedroom.

I came across THIS which says it'll do exactly what I want, but some of the reviews worry me. Has anyone here set something up like this before? Am i better off just running a straight HDMI cable and doing IR separately?

Distance of run is somewhere around 75 ft.

Thanks

Get a cheap HDMI splitter and see if it works before hooking it all up. If it does, you should be good

The distance from your bedroom to the bathroom is 75 ft?

TVs are on opposite walls of the bedroom and bathroom, so it's across both rooms. It's closer to 50ft I just wanted to go a step up.

I have a similar in wall setup using the monoprice setup. It is an hdmi extender as well and runs thru a cat 5e or 6 between jacks.

They also have setups that you place on both ends of an hdmi connection and extend the ir over the hdmi.

look around here
