Could this be used in reverse? I'm looking to be able to switch one source between two displays (PJ and HDTV) but some of the solutions are seemingly pretty pricey :)
 
Hello Rhythm EG

Unlikely - a Switch uses both Receiver (Input) and Transmitter (Output) sockets/chips so cant normally be wired in reverse.

There are lots of low cost HDMI Splitters (Distribution Amps) on the market - though be warned the compatibility (or lack of) with a wide range of kit and maximum cable run lengths (Input + Output) makes for a lot of hair pulling.

You may want to consider a 'proven' DA that works in most scenarios - see http://www.octavainc.com/HDMI distribution amp_splitter 2 port.html
