    like a scart or hdmi splitter,whats in the other room ? hmmm would a wireless sender send another signal but i have only seen scart ones and that means no hd.maybe there are hdmi ones available?

          if its going in the same room the use the existing coax with what cactikid has linked too. you will also need the TVlink Plus as this will connect to your coax cable and send the modulated signal from the scart and also power to your magic eye upstairs.

          obviously you will have to use the duo remote upstairs to switch over or just get another spare from the bay i think the clones go for around ?11

          TVlink Plus

            modulator and tv link with psu,

            wpuld i wire these two items in as follows

            scart from solo into modulator,
            aerial from roof into modulator,
            rf out from modulator into tv link plus,
            main tv output from tv link into downstairs tv (where the solo is)
            secondary output from tv link plus into the tv upstairs into a magic eye then into my tv

                You don't need to add a rf modulator if using the tvlink with psu.

                    neither does my dm800.

                    Look. The reason the RF modulator is brough up is because it will power the magic eye and the box does not have a rf ut in order to do this.

                    The TLink with psu does not need this as the PSU with the tv link powers the magic eye.

                    The coaxil is use just to extend the range of the tvlink.

                    I use my tvlink plus to extend the range of my IR on my Dm800 and a HDMI switcher as the tvlnk can extend the range of 2 devices.

                    If you want to pay for a rf modulator then its up to you, I wouldnt tell you its not required.

                    At end of the day its you call but it would be a waste of money

                      Then do please explain how you can get an RF signal out of a Satellite receiver that has no RF modulator built into it.

                        Hold up, Im wrong, Im getting mixed up here with want you want to do.

                        Your wanting a picture too and not just to extend the IR, which im going on about.

                          The Rf Modulator powers the eye where there is no rf out

                          The TV Link Psu powers the Magic eye where there is no rf out with its own psu.

                          I DO NOT use a rf modulator.

                          You still have not answered the question how do you get an RF signal out of a sat box with no RF modulator built in.

                          The solo has only HDMI, Scart, Component and Analogue A/V so please tell me how you get a signal from the solo into the TVlink plus without an RF modulator.

                          I would love to know it will save me a fortune when when i get these types of jobs

                              No worry's but you can now understand why he needs the RF modulator as well as the TVlink plus.


                              scart from solo into modulator,
                              aerial from roof into modulator,
                              rf out from modulator into tv link plus,
                              main tv output from tv link into downstairs tv (where the solo is)
                              secondary output from tv link plus into the tv upstairs into a magic eye then into my tv
