no name splitters and cheap cables are 99% certain to impact on the picture quality
the only splitters worth using are Tratec, Technetix or Labgear, not expensive but top quality
if you have VM broadband, you could have bad signal/power levels
on the bottom of the router is a 'settings password' write it down
open a browser window on laptop and type 192.168.0.1, click enter
use that password to login to the router
click Advanced settings on the left, then tools>network status
this opens a new page, click Downstream tab at the top and it'll show all the data in a list

I believe its konig splitter I have that poor quality? Ye cables I got were from ebay but got told they will be good enough if short distance.
Believe my mate worked at VM before and had spare cable left over but not sure if still has any.
Like I said mate its not just on cable. Same atrocious SD quality on sly as well.

Is there issues with power levels have VM did state they are in sync?
If you are using the hdmi cable you got with your previous sky TV box, the one with the pink end, then that cable is pretty solid. My 1m and 3m both from sky both do 12bit 2160p
Yep that is exact one I am using mate with pink/purple end.
So dont think HDMI is issue.
Tv is not on overscan by any chance?
No mate. Overscan is off.
