[QUOTE="Oriasa, post: 783280, member: 379807"] Ahhh yah, it does have a 'loop' connection on the back, I just wasn't 100% sure what it was for. If it's as simple as that, then that's certainly the cheapest option. So the SKY Italia box wouldn't need any card or anything, it would literally just be acting as a glorified decoder? Only downside with that setup is that the 2nd TV wouldn't have an HD output as it's an old box with only SCART connectors. 2 the 2 options are: 1. Use the loop connector on the Dreambox and feed that through the old SKY Italia box to the 2nd TV - Standard Def 2. Use an HDMI splitter to split the output from the Dreambox into both TV's - Both would be HD, but it's more expensive to get long HDMI cables Thanks again, looks like this is almost nailed now :) Cheers, Ori [/QUOTE]
