HDMI Wiring for HiDef TV

I was just wondering what some of you have done regarding wiring two TVs with one BluRay player. Some time ago we bought a BluRay player for the S&B and now have many BluRay discs and want to take some with us when we travel. I bought a player and it will reside in the cabinet over the drivers chair along with the old screw on cable type distribution box.

Sometimes we or the DGKs will be in back and I could buy another player or swap the existing one to the back but when we all want to watch the same movie but on two different TVs it becomes a pain. I've ordered a 35' HDMI cable and have researched the feasibility but just wondered how others may have handled this problem. I will run the cable from the front to the back through the overhead cabinets with there being only one spot where there are no cabinets and that is over the door. I can hide it well enough and it will be a pretty easy project.

Also I wonder how it will be handled in new rigs in 2015 and forward.

We did look at the FR3 and they used composite wiring but only have it for one set.

I should have included the fact that I have ordered a HDMI splitter/amp also.

They make HDMI active splitters that work well. Just stay away from the passive ones because the source can get confused as to what's out there. I bought one and managed to get pix, but never got audio through it.

I'm running an active splitter with a 50' to the rear and it's rock solid.

Are you looking for something like an HDMI splitter?

I don't know about the bounder but running RG cables for my Ham radio in the fifth wheel was real easy to pull down each of the air conditioner duct covers in the ceiling and fish my RG cable from one duct to the next using the air conditioner duct. Only had to penetrate new holes to get from the end of the duct to inside a ceiling mounted cabinet etc... After I ran my RG cables I sealed all the holes I made back up using Insulating Expanding Foam spray...
