[QUOTE="Tiredeyes, post: 134452, member: 196173"] Hi, cheers for that. dunno if i explained it right. I will try again. I have a TV ariel on roof that i get free anologue & Free to view digital channels on my DVB TV in lounge. In lounge I have Sky + plugged into skart on tv (ext2). and runs 1 co-ax to my bedroom with tv-link eye. i can change channel on sky+ in my bedroom. I have now got a cable box with all channels on also in the lounge, on ext3, skart, but how do i run it round house? can i plug output from cable box into sky+ box, so like rolf said if i find channel i thinks its 63 or 36 on tv put this on tv channel8 for my cable input my sky + is on chn 9 (47 i think) round house. then i If i explain it backwards, like in-otherwords, i get 1 co-ax cable from every room in house downstairs to lounge, so like i have 5 cables coming into the lounge. then get a 8way amplifier, plug these 5 cables in to it (outputs) then the 1 input cable will come from my sky+ or digital cable box (you reackon put my cable output (arial) to the inpt of sky+, then run the output of sky+ to the input of the 8way amp. ??? have i explained it any better (wheni say cable, i mean my telewest box) but i guess i wont get my telewest in my bedroom, because it has to run that special output wih 9v on? if i want telewest in my bedroom, i will have to swop my ariel connector, so i have to ariel connectors in my bedroom, magic eye to sky and one from the 8way amp in lounge which will be pushing out a sky+ feed on (chn46) and telewest on (chn36 or 63) and if i wanted to change chn on sky, i could anyway because magic eye is still plugged into cable with red light on, (this co-ax goes down seperate to sky+ box) but just not connected into back of tv in bedroom, but leave co-ax that comes from 8way amp in tv? its getting complicated.... ? lol i will have to test it and see. any ideas as wot not to do. i think the only one is not to plug that 9v output into anything, just leave it running to my bedroom, with magic tvlink plugged in. but how can i change channel on my telewest box from bedroom too?? the loftbox looks good, but i need to distribute cable telewest and sky too, down just 1 co-ax cable. jeez, im sooooo confused. can you do this? get cable telewest and sky+ down the same single co-ax? thanks fr the replys gys...
