    DM500 dm500c splitting the signal question

    is it possible to split the output from a dreambox so it can run upstairs as well.
    i know i'll have to turn over before i go up but just for movies or stuff.
    if so which outputs work together ?.

    only video out puts on a 500 are scart and rca. to send the signal upstairs, you would have to go with one of these outputs. a video sender would be your best bet

          hmm i suppose its possible that these cables exist or can be made. ive got a cable for a multimedia hard-drive which is rca to 9mm jack plug, so in theory at least 3 into 1 will go

              You'll probably need an RF Modulator mate. Something like this...

                  u could scart dm to video recorder (if u still have one )turn video to AV and use RF out to send signal via co-ax cable to tv upstairs, just put tv to AV as well, had this done before

                    all this scart to rf, scart to vcr to rf, seems a lot of overkill when a video sender can do the job. in my experience with a very cheap make from ebay, they work fine, also the one4all again works fine.

                      I suupose the advantages of a modulator is that you can distribute the signal to each tv in your house easily.
