Hi all,

Does anyone know, whether you could run a Wireless Scart and a Wireless Ariel together from a Virgin Media box, thus you don't need to have the box where the TV is located. Does anyone know if this will interfer with scynronisation or connectivity.

Thanks RB

The impossible dream I think ....

AFAIK such a thing doesn't exist.... I could stand corrected tho?!

Doesn't he just need a normal video sender and an extra remote control?

As long as he doesn't expect to watch different channels in the two rooms....

I have been reviewing this forum for an answer to this question.

We have just had an old NTL box replaced with a silver Samsung box.

I was looking at using a digisender to allow us to watch TV in the bedroom.

Looking at websites such as wirelesshome it suggests that not all digisenders will be compatible with the silver samsung box.

Sorry for hijacking this thread but it strikes me I have a similar question.

Any support gratefully appreciated before I commit to spending hard earned cash.

Threads Merged.

@ the OP, Please do NOT open more than one thread which is basically the same question

Hi rossboy, as kymmy just said, a thread search is good; this link may answer your question. http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/11...dmi-scart.html . The one I have described in that thread works very well!

Any cheap sender will work fine with the Samsung boxes. It's only the expensive IrDA-compatible ones like the Digisender X4 that may have a problem.
