How does a hotel do it? There is no set top box in the room and as opposed to you selecting the AV channel or spare channel to get your Sky or whatever channel on then using your digtal remote to select the digital channel you want you just use the one TV remote which has the Sky or whatever tuned in to the TV. For example; Sky Sports 1 on channel 6, Sky Sports 2 on channel 7, Sky Sports 3 on Channel 8, Sky News on channel 9, etc. I hope I have explained it clearly enough, if anyone can help I would appreciate it. The guy who asked me has his own Pub and would like to know as he has 5 TV's and when Euro 2004 is on in June he would also like to put on say the Golf or Cricket or whatever. Cheers.

We did this for a certain Rugby ground here in the north west. We had 8 channels so we had 8 settop boxes connected to a teleste amp system that allowed us to put each settop on each channel. You then only had to tune each channel in on the TV's in the Directors Boxes and Bar. The kit we installed would allow up to 16 channels.
We also did this in a hotel and even had the cctv that coverd the car park on it so the customers could see there cars
