hi there

i want to distribute TV from my DM8000 to a TV in another room... i already have a coax cable installed that i was using with my sky+ HD box (using the RF out port which worked great with the IR signal... no messy IR blinkers stuck to the box).

ideally i want something similar for the DM8000, sending the TV signal plus IR signal across the coax... any suggestions for setting this up? i'm assuming i need an RF modulator, but can anyone advise on one that has IR hardware built in since i don't want to have an additional link for the IR signal if i can avoid it! i really want to avoid a wireless IR link, since i have a pair of pyramids but they really don't work well in my current house.

i see in the states that you can get a channel plus SVM-22 or 24 which uses an s-video input (great since the DM8000 has s-video out) and can handle dolby sound which would be perfect, but i need a 220 volt solution. is there a euro equivalent?

bit disappointed the DM8000 doesn't have the RF out with integrated IR like the sky box... it's a really neat solution.

regards...

For example: DM8000 baseband into an RF modulator then into a device like a PROception starLINk for RF/IR control. There'll be a list of others that manufacture similar products.

hi there

would still need a modulator to feed this unit? ideally would prefer a combined modulator/IR/distribution unit.

Yes, this particular product doesn't incorporate a modulator.
