Hi Everyone,

I'd like to be able to stream the content from my V+ box to a TV upstairs but without drilling holes everywhere.

I know that there are wireless tv links out there but do any of you happen to recommend any?

Cheers

I've looked into this a bit, Tivo is an option and has multi-room. But then you're limited to non-protected shows to "copy" to another box.

I think the best option right now is Slingbox + Slingbox Catcher. But the Catcher has not been released yet, it is supposed to be released soon.

That will be the best wireless solution that I've heard of, would love to know of any others if someone else has some recommendations.

I should have said that the V+ box is connected to the TV via HDMI so that will probably cause a problem.

Yah that is a bit tricky, but you can probably get an adapter or something. This box can take in HDMI and output Component. If your TV had a free component that would work fine. For HDMI in and HDMI out I'm not sure what you'd do unless there is a component to HDMI adaptor?

You'd just need this though and a SlingCatcher once its released and I believe it will be able to stream up to 1080i to the Catcher wherever you needed it.
