Magic Eye

I wonder if anyone can help.

I'm trying to get my Telewest signal in another room via an RF cable, but I'm not sure if I can change channels in the new room with a Magic Eye.

I know it works on SKY but is it also the case on Telewest??

I might work but probably not

Many STBs use IrDA as the remote control signalling, rather than the more standard IR. PACE boxes in particular use IrDA.

The remote link via the RF cable used with Sky does not work with Telewest or ntl cable boxes.
You will need an AEI Digieye Remote Sender to enable you to do this with any model of cable STB.
