Video senders ... how good are they ?

[ITS A SCAM !]

I am thinking about getting a Video sender, i know that the 5.8ghz ones are a must nowadays, due to overcrowding on the 2.4ghz band, but ideally a HDMI sender would be preferred. I dont want to get one off mail order because if its crap i will have to post it back, so getting one from the high street is also essential. I can be persuaded to go for a SD model if its a good picture. Can anyone personally recommend a certain make and model, and where did they get it from ?? Cheers

Cable run is out of the question .. solid floors and just been redecorated. Just ordered one of these off ebuyer. Did not want to buy online, but maplins and other shops are charging silly money for HD senders...And i am spending my birthday money, so i dont feel that hard done by..

Mate I've used these things before and it's always a let down.
A cable run externally looks like your best bet.

Well i finally got my new video sender on friday, and i have to say what a cracking piece of kit it actually is. It is more or less plug and play and the picture is amazing. I admit that the signal has only to travel across the room ( about 12ft ), But it was originally tested with a 26" HD monitor i have upstairs, and the transmitter was located downstairs and connected to a VU+ solo. I have noticed that ebuyer have now got a offer on the full sized transmitter/reciever units at ?119.99. I get no interference at all from my router, and no connected devices have suffered connection losses. The cordless phone is also fine. If you need a video sender, get one of these... tried and tested.

Well 12 foot I don't know why you would pay all that money for what would have been a simple cable run.
The problems with video senders are well documented after you try to send the signals through a couple if walls.

How do you know it would be a simple cable run ? You assume its just a case of clipping a cable onto the skirting board...You assume wrong mate. If i could of got away with spending about ?20 on a HDMI lead, i would of gone down that route months ago. And on the basis that you dont have this particular sender, you cannot comment.. He He He
