Splitting Xbox profiles on 1 xbox one to different tvs

TS2003-[xboxvenue] · Jan 2, 2018

I would like to split my Xbox one into two different TVs so I can play two different profiles on two different TVs rather than playing split screen on one TV. How do I do this if I can?

can I use a hdmi splitter?

I would just be aware that the Xbox One is not exactly designed for HDMI-splitting (nor is it supported), and there may be issues if you're trying to output to two different TVs, such as getting a blank screen on one or both televisions. I say this because
HDCP tends to complicate matters like this. There's varying success overall, depending on the splitter.

Are you trying to do this, by the way?:

Set-top Box --> Xbox One --> Splitter --> (TV #1) / (TV #2)

Splitting 360 to two tvs

So, recently I have been playing 2 player on Gears of War with a friend, but the current TV I use is a little small and when the screen splits, it makes it hard to see your toon. Is there a way that I can split the signal from the 360 to two TVs so that
we each get a full screen?

Hi

I don't think what you are describing is possible because if you connect the console to two different televisions at the same time they will both display exactly the same image. And the console also cannot have two games running at the same time.

As above, this isn't possible, you'd be displaying the same image across 2x TV's.

Have you verified that both of the HDMI inputs on your TV have exactly the same settings, including "picture mode" etc.? Try splitting the cable box directly to both TV inputs (leave the Xbox One out of the equation), do you still see a difference between
those 2 inputs? If so, it is not the Xbox One...

I was really hoping with XBOX One they would use some of the newer technologies and allow us to do Multiplayer off of one system.

For example, I Purchase 1 XBOX One and I can play a across multiple TV's (Like split screen). Except throughout the House!!! All from 1 XBOX One and one copy of the game. Similar to what we are now seeing with the AT&T & DISH DVR systems. One DVR that works
on 2-4 TV's simultaneous.
