HDMI Mirroring?

Hello! 

 

I just purchased a new home and I'm looking to do a bit of an unconventional setup for the AV.  I currently have a Yamaha audio receiver and I want to mirror its output on the bedroom and living room TVs.  The receiver will be in the living room and the bedroom TV is on the other side of the wall, an HDMI will be going through the wall to the TV there where I will have a soundbar hooked up via optical cable to the optical out on the TV.  

 

Unfortunately a lot of the research i've been doing seems pretty flaky.  There are hundreds of no-name splitters out there with questionable reviews and I'm really not sure where to start.  Bestbuy has a rocketfish powered splitter that I'm leaning towards now, but ultimately whatever I go with would need to pass 4K and audio, bonus points if 60hz.

 

Does anyone have any experience or advice for this?  

 

Thanks!

Look to get a splitter from a brand with good reliability, in this case I would recommend something like

If your receiver has multi-zone support though that would be better as Zone A could be your normal living room and Zone B your bedroom
