[tricky22]

Hi im just wondering if anyone knows can i buy a hdmi switch/matrix/splitter that has 2 hdmi input and 2 hdmi output that has a remote to choose what output shows what input?
i know there is 4 input 2 output but just want 2 in 2 out

You can take any 2x1 switch with the remote control and connect it to 1x2 splitter.

would that let me then watch skyhd in 1 room and ps3 in another though?

No. Only matrix makes it possible.

 

[tricky22]

thats what i thought - know of any 2x2?

 

[Jack2012]

I never saw matrix with less than 4 inputs and 2 outputs.

Instead of matrix you can use two 1x2 splitters connecting their signals to both tv sets. The disadvantage is more cables, but you will have the possibility to choose between skyhd and ps3 using the tv remote controls only.

ah shame - they should make 2x2! thanks for your help

As you have PS3 remeber that the regular HDMI splitters will work well in this config if both of your TV are 3D , or both are 2D. If one is 3D and the second is 2D than you need splitters with the EDID management - something like nSplitter Pro.

neither are 3d sadly!
