Video Senders
Using Virgin tv (silver Samsung box) and wireless broadband,
Looking to get a video sender, tried emailing maplin and they said they couldn’t assure me if this was compatable and recommended another product that was £50 dearer.
http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=224299 is the one I was thinking of getting
Do I have to shell out for a posh one due to the remote control coding?

It says it's compatible with Cable, but then says not compatible with Sky+ or Virgin remotes??

I don't see why it wouldn't work TBH.

Re: Video Senders
I have that exact one and it works fine with remote. Tried it with the silver Samsung V Box, SA V+ and Samsung V+.
