Wireless scart AV sender/receiver

dig_savy · 26-06-2007, 13:14

Hi there,
I was looking for a wireless AV sender and came across this Wireless scart AV sender in Ebay. I was wondering if anyone out there can help me with this.

I have a sky box connected to a tv in my lounge. I have another tv upstairs. If I use this wireless scart AV sender, from what I understand, i connect the transmitter to the sky box and the receiver to the TV in my lounge. Do I need another receiver to the other TV upstairs?

If anyone has come across this or is using this, can you help pl.

thanks

If you've only got one additional TV then I think you only need one receiver. Some/most transmitters have a SCART pass-through socket so that you can leave your existing TV connected via SCART. However, I'm not sure if this particular one has a pass-though socket, but if you plug it into the VCR socket of the Sky box instead then it will still leave the first TV connected to the TV SCART. Of course, you've still got a problem if you've got a VCR plugged into that socket...

If you're stuck, you could get a SCART splitter which is a box containing two SCART sockets and one plug on the end. So you can have two SCARTS plugged into the same socket (one for your TV, one for the transmitter).

You might like to ask the seller whether it's got a passthrough socket, and if it hasn't how they suggest hooking it up to a Sky box whose TV SCART socket is already occupied.

thanks for your help. The purchaser has said that they have scart pass thru. So I think I shouldn't have a problem.
