Using Tiscali In 2 Rooms
andrewpk200
29-01-2008
Ok, so i have tiscali installed at home and i am quite happy with it (a couple of minor problems but nevermind)
The only problem i have is that my Tiscali STB is in the living room and i also have a TV in the bedroom,
Now in the past i would just run an Aerial cable from the STB to the tv in the bedroom (and just put up with having to go into the living room to change channel, I'm in a flat, its 2 seconds away LOL)
however the bloke who installed it said this wouldn't work (the tiscali box doesn't output on the Aerial apparently) so does anybody have any suggestions of how to get the tiscali signal onto the tv in the bedroom as a 25 metre scart lead is a rare thing indeed

Cheers SCOOP

Use a wireless video sender.

Any recommendations on a decent one - I'm after one that will cover a fair distance/transmit through walls?

We have one at work between 2 plasma TVs, situated opposite each other in an office (No obstacles in the way) and about 20-25 metres apart, and the transmitted signal isn't great - Was £79.99 new)

Thanks!

No idea, I'm afraid. If you don't mind having a composite picture instead of RGB you could always use a SCART adaptor and a long composite cable?

It's also possible to send video over cat5 cable with devices like these http://www.madnat.com/lYemto10877/-M...t/c-1-136-137/ though I've never tried it myself.

Yesterday I installed a cheap wireless video sender brrought form Asda. It is quick to install and works. The picture occassional crackles and it hates my PC next to it, but other than that it is brill.

P.S I live in a flat so there are no celings to worry about

Over on the AVForum they were talking about a £49 jobbie from Argos. They didn't mention make or model, but said it worked good.
