1187486 2011-03-19 06:38:00 Hi Guys,

With our old sky box I remember putting a splitter and pulling an extra cable to the bedroom to get the Sky on my TV in the bedroom. With having My Sky Hdi now this does not seem to work.

Does anyone know how to do this????

1187487 2011-03-19 08:22:00 What happened when you tried the splitter?

1187488 2011-03-19 08:25:00 We had the same problem when we installed the HDI version of MySky

Now they have to provide a separate RF splitter which connects to the MySky box via Line In sockets.

Can't remember if there was any charge but if there was it was only a nominal one

1187489 2011-03-19 09:48:00 It needs an RF modulator @ $50. I got one but it is switched off as it produces mains hum in AM radios which we happen to use for NewstalkZB in the mornings. Roll on FM! linw (53)
1187490 2011-03-19 18:08:00 Oh well, back to the Freeview Box!!! Just that there is a lot more on Sky then Freeview! lol mark1978 (13845)
1187491 2011-03-19 21:37:00 Does the TV in the bedroom have HDMI?

An HDMI splitter does the trick for me - I have our MySky HDi going to 4 different locations round the house. All are HDMI though.

1187493 2011-03-20 04:38:00 Something like this;

MySki goes into the splitter input then a HDMI cable from each output to each of the TV's you want it set up on. Obviously my splitter is 1 in 4 out.

Keep away from these;

I've tried them and had no end of problems.
