the cost of an av sender isnt very cheap and i was hoping to make use of the existing cable

Well the DM500s doesn't have an intergrated RF modulator, so to use it with your existing cable, you'd have to buy an external one, on top of that if you wan't to be able to change channel remotely from the TV in the bedroom you'd need to use one of THESE or an remote extender, or control the box via the web-if.

Will be less hassle and as cheap to use an A/V sender in the long run

They can suffer from interference, the 2.4 GHz ones especially as thats the frequency that the majority of wireless devices operate on.

The 5.8 GHz ones are much less prone to interference.

[dave-h]

Connect it to the DM800s scart... Obviously the picture won't be output in HD though
