    As the title says is there an equivalent of skys magic eye that will work with a Saorview box. There literally isn't room for the box where the telly is.

    So the TV mustn't have a Saorview tuner (or satellite tuner if the box also includes this), & can only be fed over coaxial cable?

    Triax Tri-Link has a SCART input & can output an RF signal like the Sky box, & also has provision for 'magic eye' control. I'm not sure if there are other single options that incorporate both features.

    How old is the tv? Maybe think of changing the tv for a saorview compatible and with a sat tuner for extra options....

    A tri-link will work as suggested earlier but are in ther €50-60 price range..

    Thanks for the replies. Yes it's an old television but works perfectly for Saorview so reluctant to scrap it. Are receivers that fit behind the tv still available. If I found one how could I tell from specs if it would receive Saorview
