HD Box

[skystorm]

Hi All is it possible to feed off the HD box in one room to feed another tv in another room and if so how

When you say HD box you mean Sky HD I assume?

If so, then yes, use the RF outputs and run a co-ax cable to the other location. Use decent co-ax, not the cheap brown rubbish that wholesalers try and palm off as suitable. If you use RF2 and get a remote eye you can control the Sky HD box from another room over the co-ax.

This will only give an RF feed, if you want something a bit better then there are other, more expensive methods of achieving the same result.

Thanks Lurch done all that the picture is okay but the sound is very low

Crikey, you don;t hang about!

If the audio is low turn the volume up.

If you are saying the audio is low compared to the primary location, then it could well be due to the way the box works. As long as the levels are usable at both ends then there's no need for concern.

I use devices that extend Scart over cat5. They are great devices as they also extend the Infra Red.

For HD you'll get similar devices that do HDMI.

Do you want HD in the Kitchen too?

If no, then stay with coax it's inexpensive, and as Lurch says go for a good quality coax, no good reason why the sound is low, if you have another TV try on that and see if you get any change e.g. process of elimination

If yes

At 6m you could run an HDMI though a 2x splitter, the only issue is routing the cable as they can be large diameter wise and the radius on bends etc

The CAT6 solution is a more expensive choice (due to the sender/receiver costs), but likely easier to feed cables, since you only need a 7mm hole and you can dress these as the crimp tool and RJ45 are quite cheap

Lastly look at the HD wireless solutions, however with the
