Changing channels from another room
 

I have TV Drive piped into another room via a RF lead. I previously had Sky Digital piped into another room and could change channels remotely by using the antiference device found here: http://www.satcure.co.uk/accs/page3.htm#antif

Unfortunately this device does not seem to work with TV Drive!

Can anybody suggest a cheap device that will? (I'm hoping to spend less than £10)

For ten quid no - perhaps a small child and a long pointed sharp stick !;)

I have got a Marmitek Powermid system - I think the setup cot £24.99 from this link :www.keene.co.uk/cgi-bin/codesearch.pl?PMID

It works very well for me.

Hope it helps

Ok cheers mate.

Was hoping I could find something similar to the antiference device for TV Drive but if nothing like that exists it looks like I'm gonna av to chin the 25 quid!

Unless anyone knows of a cheaper alternative?

Re: Changing channels from another room
 

Apparently TVDrive uses IR and not IRDA (see http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...=39753&page=11) which means I should be able to use the aniterence device to change channels!

Can't understand why I can't get it to work!

I have my connection through a coaxial upstairs as my main set hs the digital on it,anyway I manage to get a crystal clear picture sound and can turn it over to.With a spare sky origional remote control.
What I did was purchased a AV Video Sender set which also had a infa red extender with it and it works a charm.I have done a guide on what and where I purchased all my bits for connecting to another television on Ebay its free its in the Guides and Reviews part for all to read.Its on page 2 of cable and connections and is simply titled How To Add Sky Digital To Another Room Or Bedroom. This should hopfully help with your problem . Good Luck Best Regards Jackie
