1 openbox s9 spilt into 3 rooms

[pspmixer]

Today I installed a openbox s9 for friend of mine which is working fine but want to split it into other three rooms
Before I put the openbox in he had the first ever sky box which was split into three rooms via a device which looks like this -http://www.dcreceivers.com/images/3_way_splitter.jpg
I don't know what it's called
I tried putting it on the back of the openbox but picture didn't come up in other rooms
Any idea how I can sort it or buy other device which will work with this box and in other three rooms

I have a splitter box that worked fine with cable and sky but have the same problem as yourself.. i have looked about in the openbox settings and from what i can gather "maybe wrong" but i think it only outputs to one conection "ie HD lead . try changing output in settings does not work for me though but maybe ur splitter box different
as i said only suggestion

You need an RF modulator. The box does not have an RF (old simple coaxial style) output and for the splitter to work we need an RF signal which can be done by getting the RCA output (yellow, red, white cables) to connect to RF modulator which changes the signal to the old style RF(coaxial) signal that can be split and viewed in three rooms with extension cables carrying the RF signals to the aerial leads of the three TVs.

I'm looking to do the same using an S12 box. The box has a 3.5mm Jack AV. Using an 3.5mm jack to RCA Cable I plugged my S12 directly into the local TV to test the output quality. The picture was too bright, washed out and ghostly.

I'm was planning on running this to a modulator and then running coax to the upstairs TV, but have concerns about the quality of the output from the box. Surely this will deteriorate further once I run the RCA through a Modulator?

Is there anything I can do about this? Do I need to alter any settings etc?

I wouldnt bother...

Its a Composite Video signal out of the AV sockets, the Yellow RCA carries all the colour signals combined in analog SD low resolution, the TV then has to do a best effort at working out how best to seperate the colours to make the picture, some TV's do it better than others, some TV's you have to faff about tweaking brightness/contrast/colour settings to get it acceptable.. Adding an RF modulator into the mix will degrade the Composite video signal even further..

Old CRT tellies used to hide the naffness of Composite Video & RF video, due to the TV's crappy resolution.. A modern HD TV will truly represent Composite & RF video for what it actually is, nothing more than dire crap video quality...

If its decent picture quality you then ultimately you should split the HDMI output with a spliiter, then either run long HDMI cable or send it via a wireless HDMI video sender..

Thanks I know wireless HDMI Video sender can be pricey, and I've not had much experience of these units. Is there one you can recommend?
