Controlling SkyHD Box from Remote in another room?

[AnthonyG]

Hi,

I have finally got the SkyHD box setup, and card assigned to the new box, so this is the first hurdle over.

However one thing that is bringing up curiosity is whether it is possible to control the skyHD box from another room with a second SkyHD remote control.

I have saw on ebay and such selling RF magic eyes which allow you to both watch and control sky from another room via the RF2 output.

However as I have the HDMI cable going through a wall I am getting a much better picture than RF2.

Therefore is there a way I can buy something to just have the control sky in another room via a second remote control features and not have the watch in another room features.

Is this possible?

As it just seems a waste paying for something extra that is not needed.

Thanks
Anthony

Magic eyes are pretty cheap though aren't they? Cheaper than (for example) an IR retransmitter.
