You can get an HDMI splitter/hub, but you'll have to watch the same channel as the main TV (or split the signal further "upstream" and watch one TV at a time). Not 100% sure about satellite, but you may have to get another receiver in the BR in order to watch different channels.

Yeah for satellite you'll need another receiver or a way to control the main receiver.
I had this in my last house.
More TV's than receivers. I arranged the daisy chains based on which TV's would not be on the same receiver and also used simultaneously. My office and Master bedroom were on one receiver and living room TV and a couple of others on another receiver.
Basically no one would ever be in the office and bedroom at the same time so that worked.
To control the receiver go to Radio Shack and get IR transmitter/receiver set up.
The one I had looked like a little pyramid The units were on different floors at opposite corners of the house and worked perfectly.
If you are on cable then you very likely will get a good number of channels, local and network at least, without a box. Just need a TV with a digital tuner built in, which most if not all have these days.
