TV/ Audio video advice please

[bobmac]

Are there any experts out there please.
I have bought a dvd recorder with freeview that now lives in the lounge and I would like to watch it in the kitchen and office. The problem is, it only seems to work through the scart output and not RF cables.
Ive had a nose around and I know you can get AV senders but I've also found a box that converts scart to RF

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this set up. I already have the RF cables in place and the remote control senders so thats not a problem.
It's just how to avoid running a loggggggg scart cable round the house

Thanks for any advice

I had a satellite decoder I wanted to send all over the house using RF cables.

What I did/do is use an old video cassette recorder I had lying around, connected the scart from the decoder to the VCR and use the RF out from that.

Hope that makes sense!

That might just work captain.
Only one problem....I've just started it recording a film which lasts 2 hours so patience required.
Will let you know if it works.
Thanks Hooker

Clever boy, it works
Thank you :clap:
Now how do I connect it all up with the sky box, Tivo (sore point) dvd player video and tv x3

This calls for some serious fiddling

SCART to RF will result in signal degradation Bob, and then carried over a long distance through RF you may not get a great picture at the other end.
I would personally use a fast transfer AV sender over RF any day.

Edit: I realise you got this sorted and you may be happy with the end result - if so, result

Nope, still fiddling. Too many scart cables and not enough sockets. And.....I can't find my multi scart box selector thing. :angry:
Cant wait till I get Tivo no.2 on Monday

Well, you could use one of the converter boxes then run it through a splitter/amplifier (1 in 3 or 4 out) which would address some of the degradation issue and also fix the connectivity issue with the SCART problem.
