Question Connecting Sky+ additional connection to Projector

I've recently bought an Infocus Screenplay 4805 Projector and want to connect my Sky+ additional connection (i.e. not the main box) to it. However as the additional connection is fed in via a standard aerial connection and the projector only has S-Video and composite connections, does anyone know how to do this?

You're probably better off posting this in the Projector forum rather than the Screens one.

I'm assuming from your description that the Sky+ box is in another room and that the RF2 aerial conenction is wired to the room with your Projector? If that's the case, then the only solution I can think of is to connect the aerial lead to a VCR, and then connect the VCR to the Projector by composite connection from its SCART socket (if it doesn't have a separate composite video connection).
