I'm considering a 2nd hdmi tv to use in bedroom. Current hdmi in living room fed by cable hdmi or pc net dvi-hdmi. To view same hdtv in br I'm thinking get tv with hdmi out which some show online as having, put that in liv room, move lr tv to br, run 25' hdmi cord between them to have in both rooms. Would this work ? Is 25' cord gonna hurt pic quality ?
Edit added : I've been looking online at details of Walmart RCA led tvs 19" or 24" or 32". It says hdmi out. Commentor below doesn't think any tv's do this and might just be hdmi arc for audio only out. Anyone know for sure ?

I don't think there are any TVs that output video.
You may be confused by HDMI-ARC which allows the TV to output audio only over the same HDMI cable that also inputs picture and sound to the TV.
You can connect your sources to an HDMI input selector with more than one HDMI output (one for each TV). A matrix type input selector would allow each TV to connect to a different source. You can use a 25' HDMI cable before you run it permanently connect it to make sure it works. HDMI can be tricky especially with long cables.

Yes...25 feet is fine. In the future, don't post the same question twice. The moderators will flag you.

Thx much for response heads up. I added to post the tvs I been looking at online. Walmart RCA LED TVs. Details say : • HDMI, VGA, RF, YPBPR, AV AUDIO/VIDEO, PC AUDIO, HEADPHONE, COAXIAL, USB FOR SERVICE. Input/Output Connectivity Options PC Audio Input, HDMI Input, HDMI Output, Coaxial Digital Audio, VGA. Is this likely misleading, leaving out that it's hdmi arc out you think ?

Thx. Only way to know for sure I guess, is go in and have rep connect their display model to 1 beside it and see. If not, as others have suggested, only way would be use a hdmi switch-splitter hdmi-cp (copy protect compatible) to choose input from cable box or pc dvi-d-hdmi to both tvs simultaneously. Otherwise, since usually only using 1 or other tv, change by hand the desired tv hdmi feed plug in living room.
