You appear to have an older STB with an analogue pass-thru - which is why you can get Sky News on the remote TV.

Currently, you can use the channel selector on the remote TV to switch between 1-5, Sky News and whatever the STB is viewing. However, with the video sender you will only have whatever the STB is viewing and you will not be able to change channels from the remote TV.
hmmm, interesting. well i've been out to maplin at lunchtime and bought the sender, so i will just have to do some experimenting before i decide whether i've wasted £30.

Just to clarify, on the bedroom tv i currently only have choice of 1-5, sky news or whatever is playing on the video downstairs - i am not able to view whatever the stb is viewing at all.

If it's a pass-through analogue signal, surely it should still work? i thought the whole idea is that the transmitter will send whatever signal is coming in, so if i am receiving both digital and analogue won't i still get both on the remote set?
