V+ Digi Sender (picture to another TV in house)
Hi
I currently have a V+ box (using scart output and not HDMI) I want to send the TV signal to a Tv upstairs via one of the TV sender things. I have just spent the last 2 hours looking through the search on this site and i can find plenty of posts about what sender to use for normal set up boxes but none for the V+ boxes. 1. What sender is the best to use with the V+ box? (remote working is not important but obviously would be nice if it did) I was looking at this one from Argos and was wondering if it was any good? (no picture break ups etc) http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/5344273.htm I need to connect two TV's to it so will it support two recievers at the same time? 2. As far as i am aware if you use HDMI output then the scart is blocked, have they changed this or is it still the case? If anyone could get back to me asap then that will be great Many Thanks |

2. This still is the case except for if you're archiving recorded stuff to a vcr or dvd recorder from the vcr socket on the v+ |

2. This is still the case. I only change to HDMI via the menus when I want to watch HD content on my HD tv else it is mostly on SCART. Hope this helps. Let me know if you need any more assistance or advice. |

firstly, thanks for the fast replys guys! With the argos sender, do you get much disruption (e.g people walking around etc) Funky Cable, are you using a budget sender or a expensive one? Do you mind telling me exactly which sender you are using? (i need to get one that is garanteed to work with the V+ box ) Also another question is, does it have to say that the transmitters can have 2 recievers? or is it just the case of tuning reciever 2 into the same channel that reciever one is in? Thanks! |

on the subject of a second receiver i used the receiver from my previous av system on which the transmitter broke on fine and it is not even the same brand, all you need to do is put it on the same channel that you have set on the transmitter. |

Re: V+ Digi Sender (picture to another TV in house)
ok i have now purchased this sender from Argos (cheapest one was out of stock)
http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/5345911.htm Problem i have is.....it does not come with the scart splitter which means i have to plug it into the 2nd scart output on the V+ box. This way send the picture and sound fine but when i use the remote it does not show the menus etc on the recieving TV ( i was aware of this already) Basically what i need to know is, is there anything i can do to plug this sender into scart output 1 on the V+ box along with the main TV, or is there another sender at Argos that comes with a scart splitter? e.g you plug the scart cable from output1 on V+ into this scart splitter which then runs the sender and also you can plug into TV Many Thanks |

my tristar one came with a splitter so i wonder why the pricier one didn't. have PM'ed you with my setup, i'll have a look on the net for you to see if i can find out how you can get one like mine.

when I went thru this exercise a couple of years ago by far the best was the cheaper Tri-Star - complete with Scart Splitter or buy a scart splitter ? from what other are saying it looks like the Tri-Star will work fine with the V+ box - which is the question I was asking in another thread The Tri-tar rocks - I've got 2 of them !

I've bought some wifi sender / receiver pack for Argos, forget the name, but they were like lil flat routers. Anyway, it all worked fine as long as I disconnected my wifi network ie internet. Even though my wifi router was two rooms away, the picture had lines appearing every 2" on the screen with a cracking noise every time it appeared, disconnect the router job done. Problem was about 2 other people in my row got wifi about 2 months after and now I can't use the digi sender for pictures. I ended up co-axing out of the STB to the other room and using the digi box to change channels.
