Is there a dongle that can allow you to alternate output displays so I can have a computer hooked up to both its own monitor and the living room tv and switch between inputs as I wish?

There’s only 1 HDMI port that works on it and I’d like to alternate where it sends video/display

Like and HDMI male cord that has two HDMI female ports to plug in two different monitors

Alternatively could you daisy-chain them and mirror the display?
