One decoder - two TV's - two red-eyes...

SwampThing · 2006-01-23 19:24:58

...can it be done? The setup ---- Dish, 1 lnb -> decoder in attic -> powered av2 port -> Y splitter -> TV1 & TV2 - each with a red eye. Is this likely to work? I understand that the same program is on both TV's but what I'm after is the ability to change chanells from two different rooms. Poppy-cock or do-able?

There is a global amplifier/splitter that will enable you to use up to 4 eyes and 4 tvs at the same time its about 50euro - the channel will be the same one though

Any make/model details -I've spent that much on crap in B&Q I'm sure I'd buy the wrong thing.

Thanks.
