Intel Graphics 4400 HDMI splitter to 2 TVs detects 1, mirrors the other.

[AKada2]

I have an HDMI Splitter with 2 output ports. the in is connected to my HP Envy x360 and the image gets split out onto 2 TVs plugged in through the HDMI. When cloning it is fine. When I choose to extend, the image only extends to one TV while the 2 TV's are mirroring each other. I've done what driver updates I can and have done what I could with how they are plugged in. Is there anything I may be missing to check? accordingly, the Intel Core i5 that it comes with can do 3 way monitors.

Thank you.

Hello Abra-Kadabra:

You mentioned the laptop has Intel® Graphics 4400, the specifications of the laptop said the graphics controller on it is Intel® HD Graphics 520, still, the latest graphics driver version for both controllers is 4501, you can always try that driver in order to fix the problem:

The reason why this configuration is not working could be related to the splitter, since the signal came just from one source, and then that one signal gets split in two, some features might not work they way it should.

Another option might be to try a different splitter, but the results might be the same, since the source is still only one.

When the laptop has a display port, there might be different options to set up a dual display, like the one called daisy chain, which is basically attached one monitor to the other, but, unfortunately based on the specifications, the laptop has no display port:
