I am helping my father-in-law setup Pro Presenter in his church. I have done this kind of work many times. Their budget is really tight. We purchased the Lenovo - 510-22ISH 21.5" Touch-Screen All-In-One - Intel Pentium - 8GB Memory computer. 50 feet of HDMI cable that goes to a Kanex Pro 1x4 booster splitter. Then 20 feet of HDMI cable to two Sceptre 65" Class 4K (2160P) LED TV's. The signal is reaching the monitors fine, except one tv has a blue color and the other has a green color. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

that's a good first start. connect a single monitor with a shorter cable and see how that goes. then add in the splitter and see how both monitors do.

should show if it is the splitter or perhaps the longer cables. finally, i'd look at settings on the tv's themselves as they may just need some adjusting (though i assume you likely started there already)

i use pro presenter at my church as well and we have 2 100ft hdmi cables running from a splitter off the mac we use. though we use projectors and not tv's. i have not seen any coloring issues to suggest it may be a quirk of the software.

low quality cables may be the cause as well. especially for longer ones as they have to be put together right and cheap ones may not be made very...
