Hi, I'm wandering if there is an hdmi splitter that will let me extend my 3 monitors? I found a generic branded 1 x 4 hdmi splitter on Amazon, but in the questions a lot of people said it wouldn't let me extend the displays, only duplicate them. Does anyone know a splitter that will let me do this? Thanks!!!
 


I wish I could... I only have one hdmi port. What's another way of having a triple monitor setup? My graphics card also has a display port, and dvi port. (thanks for the response)
 


I have a dvi to hdmi adapter, but when I try to use it, one of the screens are not full screen. Do you know why this happens? Only the main/1st monitor would be full screen. I went into the display settings, and turned the resolution where is should be, and it would still have black bars all the way around the 2nd monitor.
 
So your card has - 1 x HDMI (with 3D), 1 x DisplayPort 1.2, 1 x Dual-Link DVI-D and 1 x Dual-Link DVI-I

The Samsung - VGA/DVI/HDMI

Element - HDMI

So I'd run HDMI card to HDMI Element and DVI-I card to DVI Samsung. Or you can use dvi/vga adapter on the card to vga on the samsung.
 


Thanks!!!!

Don't listen to this, it won't work as has been said. Even on the link he gives it shows this:
HDMI splitter function: it can distribute 1 HDMI source to 4 HDMI displays simultaneously;
HDMI splitter + extender: Max distance this device supported is 30 meters for input and 25 meters for output;
3D support: if both HDMI source and HDMI displays support 3D, this splitter can detect the EDID
automatically and support 3D output.
CEC support;
Support ultra-HD resolution 4K x 2K.
HDMI resolution supported: 480i/480p/576i/576p/720p/1080i/1080p(50hz; 60hz); 1080p / 24hz 3D,
720p/50hz 3D, 720p /60hz 3D, 4k x 2k

The only thing close to doing something like that and work for an extended desktop, is the use of a daisy chained Displayport setup, which you don't need. Just get the converters as needed for multiple ports.
