I live in Dublin, Ireland and am looking to connect 4 TVs to 1 set top box (N*L cable), so we can watch the same programs from the box on all TVs. My house is already wired up, so I'm sure this is pretty easy. From what I gather I need the box and then a booster, and then a 4 way splitter and then to connect the 4 coax cables from the splitter to the relvant rooms - fistly is this correct so far 9including the series in whihch to connect), and can anyone recommend a signal booster & 4 way splitter (believe the quality of these can make big difference) I can buy in Ireland? Secondly - I have about 8 rooms wired up (new house so they did them all during building) how to I know which pre-wired coax serves which room, or do I just need to connect them all up one after the other and have a TV in the room to check if it goes on? Thirdly - is there a way to change the channels remotely (ie. like the Sly eye?). I have an old sky box, would this work in a second room if we wanted to change the channels, or is the sly box incompatible with cable? If not, and I wanted to have this option, can I only use an N*L box? Fourthly, if we wanted to watch different channels, would we have to buy another N*L box, or would any FTA box work connected via cable in another room? Finally!!! - would all of this work with one of these special boxes added in as well (before the booster/splitter) - eg. s***v**w box.
hi I think some manufacturer provides demonstration facility. i think it is useful for your multiroom audio system or for smart home technology.
Hi, the answer to your first question is yes, that is the way to do it, any booster will do really. Secondly, yes that is how to check it. Thirdly you can buy some remote systems, but they can be expensive and don't work that well. A s*y box won't work. Fourthly, yes you would be better to get a starview or something like that and be able to watch different channels in the different rooms, in that case you boost and split the signal before it goes into the back of the first box.
