    You would need to take the hdmi output into a splitter and disrepute to each TV/monitor as required.
    You could also convert HDMI to cat 5 & distribute it around the house that way.

    The dvr should have a composite/bnc video out, plug that in to an rf modulator and distribute it that way.

    That what I did as I have a terrestrial aerial setup which required laying new wires to each TV when I ditched UPC, I think the OP wants to use the existing UPC cabling via the different setup boxes which I don't think will work

    Thanks koolkid, might do the HDMI to Cat 5 like you suggested didnt realise this was possible thanks! found this on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzpDB4d-GdA

    last question, can i use the VGA & HDMI Ports on my DVR simultaneously?
    Want to Leave VGA running to the monitor and use the HDMI with cat splitter to run to 2 other points.

    thanks ronan:)

    Just be careful, those baluns for running HD over cat5 are very pricy. Think I paid €150 for a set the last time I bought them.
