Right just moving to new house which needs a full re wire so planning to go for an av install too.
I am basicaly trying to achieve :-
SKY (eventually HD) in around 5 rooms - not sure if cloned or multi room yet
Digital TV in 5 rooms
Internet access in 5 rooms
Email access in 5 rooms
PC access in 5 rooms
and if possible access to movies and audio stored on a server pc.
My questions are
1. Is CAT5E the way to go ??
2. Is windows media the best operater for this ?
3. Will it be possible to access different movies from the PC is different rooms at the same time
Stop laughing, I said I was a newbie
It just seems that now is the perfect time to do this as we are due to move in a 2-3 months so i want to plan this as best I can.
I have been googling this for a while and keep stumbling over a 'Abitana' home network but it looks an expensive way to achieve what I am after - Anyone have any idea on supply only costs ?
Soooo many questions, please help guys asd this is my only chance to get this right
Thanks
Marcus
