    Ah yes Cal, BUT.... if you look at the description, it says ....

    "Not compatible with IrDA Protocol used in NTL and telewest digital cables boxes."

    Surely that would mean it wouldnt work for my NTL Digital?

    Yep the remote won't work, but everything else, in theory, should work. I say in theory because I have tried something similar with my PCs TV-OUT to broadcast the signal to the TV downstairs but I get snow and nothing else. Of course it was a TV and a PC so it may be different with the NTL box and a TV. YMMV. If anyone knows of a setup that can broadcast from a PC to a TV please tell me as my only other option is to mod my X-Box.....and that takes time which I do not really have :confused:

    @OfflerCrocGod: I have such a setup - so it is possible. You just need to tinker around with it. Maybe the distance between wireless transmitter/receiver is too far - or you have a thick wall in between? Walls with foil-backed aeroboard can be a signal blocker too.

    What video card have you got?

    Ok If you want your NTL remote to work with it too it will cost you more.

    But THIS will do it.
