If your TV only has two HDMI the you have to connect one of the devices to other ports.

Or you can buy an AV receiver. AV receivers have several HDMI in/out, so you can connect all your devices to the receiver and then connect the receiver to TV.

What don said. You'll need a hub to split an HDMI port into multiple ports, like a USB hub. There's a slew of them on Amazon. Just read the reviews first and get a good one

Edit. Did a very quick search on my Amazon app (and by quick it was the very first hit ) Something like this should work

Kinivo 301BN Premium 3 port High speed HDMI switch with IR wireless remote and AC Power adapter - supports 3D, 1080p

That works too, lol. Definitely will solve the HDMI problem. At least until you get something else that needs and HDMI port Though now you're armed with the knowledge of splitters
