Any PC Monitors w/HDMI in and out?

Thread Starter 
OK so I'm trying to integrate my new media PC with my HT. At times, I will want to work on the PC and watch TV too, so I plan on buying a seperate 20-22 inch PC monitor for that purpose. My Sony TV has HDMI in and out.

My PC video card has a single HDMI out, however. The PC video card also has S video and DVI out too.

All the PC monitors I have reviewed recently on the Web, only have a single HDMI input but no HDMI out.

Question:
How do I run two monitors (1 PC and 1 TV) from a single PC with a single HDMI out; can I run one monitor w/ HDMI and another with a DVI from the same card?

Thx...

Hi Robert. I'm looking at doing the same thing you asked. Did you ever get it to work? What did you end up doing? Thanks.

Just get a new video card with dual monitor support? I think that's by far the best solution.

Will there be any issues with the video card if one is a monitor and the other is a 1080p TV? Don't need them both working at the same time, just need to switch between them. Will there be problems because they are different resolutions?

Dual monitor cards can handle 2 monitors running different resolutions simultaneously.
