    Hi,
    anyone know how to get HD picture on bedroom tv that already has magic eye with SD but feed is coming from HD on main tv in sitting room HD main box?

    I would basically like HD in bedroom as well as sitting room without having to pay more money to Sky:confused:

    only way is you get a 1:2 hdmi splitter and run a second hdmi cable to the bedroom, or else cat5 cables and get some hdmi/cat5 baluns. existing cabling won't work

    yes, I have HD on 3 tvs, co-ax to a magic eye splitter to allow remote functionality and then hdmi splitter to the tvs for picture/sound, no probs

    I actually bought a cheap HDMI splitter on ebay 5 months ago and it is crap as i have to plug out the unused one each time to stop interferance.

    I already have the long HDMI in place and i have the magic eye in operation.

    Can someone please show me an online link to a splitter that will work as i have a habit of buying cheap products that never do what they are supposed to do? :confused:
