Hi all, I need some advice. I have sky+ in my Living room and Sky HD in my family room. Both have been installed by Sky with the multiroom package as well.
I want now to put a new 42 TV in our bedroom without going through Sky again, so a DIY job and the best cost vs functionality as I can have
These are my thoughts but I need someone who understands these things better than I do point me in the right direction. First, I don't need a recording function for the bedroom TV so I assume I don't need a sky box then??
1. Is it a matter of running a cable from either my sky+ or HD box (say for this idea I use the HD box) along with a magic eye to my new bedroom TV? Will this allow me to watch recorded programs from my HD box that I've connected to and also change the channels as normal using the HD remote control. Will I need the family room TV on for this to work or just have on the family room HD box.
Or is there another better way? I'm an ex building contractor so I'm handy with running cables etc.
Thanks in advance for any advice its appreciated.........
