    Default sending video to another T.V

    Hi Guys
    I could do with a little advice from you if any of you can help here.
    I?ve got an Openbox S10 which is running great but I want to send the pics to a T.V in another room.
    Is there any Digi sending device what would do this job or would I need to buy an Openbox S9 to do the job as the S9 has a scart socket at the rear.
    Any advice would be great.

    Cheers

    red white yellow double ended leads,
    one end out of s10,the other end into
    your vcr (if it has them)my vcr only has
    scart so i use scart adaptor that takes
    red white yellow leads ,then plugs into
    vcr scart

    Get yourself a Wireless TV Video sender (the 5.8ghz models are the best, 2.4ghz cheaper but can suffer interference from Wifi and Microwave ovens) and also buy a scart-rca phono adaptor to connect it to your S10, then you wont have to run coax to the other room and you'll also be able to remote control the box from the TV in the other room too..

    Just to throw another idea in for you....

    I have my S9 in the front room, along with a Virgin STB and a DVD player.

    I have the three boxes connected to TV by HDMI cables.

    The three boxes are connected via Scart to a 3 way Scart Switch. I have a 5,8Ghz wireless sender connected to the scart output with the other "end" plugged into my wall mounted TV in the other room.

    This means I can watch S9, Virgin or DVD in the other room simply by selecting the appropriate input on the scart switch.

    Does that make sense?!!!

    Works well for me, as we can watch all three boxes without having any STB's cluttering up the wall mounted telly

    ;-)
    I have my S9 in the front room, along with Virgin V+HD, Western Digital Live and an HTPC.

    I have the 4 devices connected to a switchable 4x2 HDMI Matrix, one output goes to the main TV in lounge, the other output goes to an HDMI-CAT5 Balun, a single Cat5 cable then runs through wall to upstairs bedroom where the receiver HDMI-Cat5 balun outputs HDMI to that telly.. I have full HD output on both TV's and can independantly select whichever device is required on either TV... Remote Control of all devices (including HDMI Matrix) on bedroom TV is possible by way of a small "Powermid" wireless IR repeater..

    All a bit lavish I suppose, but I did mine this way as I have a HD TV in the bedroom, all my devices output HD, and composite video from wireless Video senders just doesnt look as nice..

    Like it!!!

    I'd wondered about cat5 actually, as the tv in the other room is 720p HD so worth doing I guess.

    Could you do me a favour and list the bits of kit needed to do what you're doing there? Product names etc. I know its cheeky to ask but if it works for you then there's no better recommendation.

    Cheers nibblitz!!
