When the splitter is hooked up the picture freezes on tv. Im trying to run splitter from cablebox in house and to the tv on porch. How do I do this so it works? Any ideas?
 
Solution
You can't use a passive splitter on HDMI. You need an active HDMI distribution amplifier.
The HDMI cables can affect if this works too. HDMI wasn't designed for long runs so the cable and amp you use will make a difference.
