Centralised Mutli-Room TV & Cables

    Hello,

    I have just moved into a house and have pulled down all the walls (plasterboard). I am trying to future proof the cabling in the walls as much as possible.

    So I am feeding in HDMI, Coax and power to all the TV locations. Speaker cables into the ceiling for speakers (when I have the money)

    I am also running CAT6 to all the rooms and TV locations.

    My question is though and it would be ideal if we could have multi-room TV but only have 1 box, Sky, Virgin, or 3rd Party that sits in a central location and have multi-room viewing around the house. I would like to keep the walls clean and not have to have a sky, virgin etc box in every room.

    Any also any other cables that would be worth putting into the walls while the walls are off

    Thanks :)

    You need a HDAnywhere mHub comes in 4x4 or 8x8 and in 2k & 4k systems

    Hi MHI,

    that looks like a good solution to the problem and will be able to feed of the existing CAT6.

    I am guessing though that two people in two different rooms cannot watch two different things. I would need two sky boxes plugged into that device to be able to view different channels.

    Exactly you would require 2 sky boxes to watch 2 different programs on sky.

    I find people may use the following

    Sources: Sky TV, Freeview Box, Apple TV & Bluray Player

    You can then access all of the above on any TV ;)
