    Hi guys.
    This has been asked before but I don't think it the same situation.
    I have a nano3t that is upstairs. I have three other tv locations around the house.
    I am currently using a triax modulator to send the signal around. This allows the use of magic eyes. The picture is complete pants to say the least.
    So what solution can I use to do the job??
    Can I use the existing coax with a HDMI modulator??

    Ive seen hdmi over coax "gizmos" for sale online but they seemed very expensive as i recall.
    Cat5 cable and hdmi adaptors an option also, thats what i did in a similar situation.

    I have cat5 running to each point already for internet and I don't really want to go pulling more cables. I can get a HDMI modulator to covert the signal to mpeg4 and distribute but will the magic eyes work

    Works a magic eye alright.

    Sending a HD signal down an analogue RF system vastly reduce quality down to 576i.

    If your other TV's are MPEG4/H264 cimpatible then......
