The HDMI is a port which gets used if plugged-in by some service or device. If your Sky is being ported there, then that's 1 service. You have to tell by the remote/service box what source input you plan to use, thus either laptop or Sky to view, though they maybe actually active, just not being viewed. The idea is to follow the source, however I'm thinking 1-HMDI if that's the case but if 2-HDMI ports, then select which one you plan to use and thus view from. Unless your TV has some "PIP" option/feature you're going to view 1-display output.
It always helps to post full details of your setup.

I want to connect laptop to tv using HDMI cables but I believe the HDMI port on the tv is currently being used by my Sky connection. Do I really have to keep changing from one to the other?
