Having had this for a year now in my bedroom, gonna get rid and get myself a magic eye/digisender/whatever they're called.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Also, unrealistic I know, but may need one that has a transmission range of about 50 metres having just built a games room in me backyard-is this possible??

Get the sky magic eye from asda, I have about 60m of cable in my garage if you want it (need to check its still in there)

Works a treat

Cant have sky.  :twisted:

cheers BB-whats the damage for that asda magic eye then?

thanks for the offer of the old cable but already buried my 6mm armoured cable for the electric and can't be arsed diggin that shit up again tbh-may give you a shout tho if all else fails

From memory it was about £28 but that was about two years ago, it came with a remote as well but only a short amount of cable.  It goes through my lounge around over teh house into my bedroom via all the guttering so hidden - id say about 60 metres

I don't think I explained myself very well  :oops:

I'm after something wireless for me bedroom, ya know, one of those things that transmits from main tv via one of those mouse-lookin things  :?

In addition, if it can be done, I'm looking for something similar that can transmit again from me lounge to me sex-den in me backyard

I've got magic eye. It works a treat.

You're welcome jimbob.



(not sure I want to know about the goings on in you're sex den though)

I just didnt read it properly! Im sure you can get one but doubt it will be cheap, id be interested in this if you have a solution as want a plasma in my pool room in Jan

You can get wireless digitsenders from about £20 to £100. Their effectiveness depends on a load of local factors - distance between source and receiver(s), wall construct, wireless network interference,  etc.

There is no problem having 2 receivers and one transmitter so providing ''range' is OK you could feed 2 additiojnal TVs from 1 source.

The main issues I had with digisenders are

1 - interference from wireless network caused a 'click click' sound/line on the TV (intermittant). Microwaves also really screw it up when on!
2. Most digisenders have 4 'channels' for audio/video but only 1 for the remote relay (AIE gold as sold in Argos £99 gets round this!). To cut a long story short a clash with the neghbours resulted in a remote control war as we were both controlling each others boxes.

That said, this setup works fine for my mum.
----------------------------------------------------
In the end I went for a cabled resolution - magic eye for £5 incl P&P from ebay (Already had remotes) and some coax. You can get boosters that are magic eye compatible and so can control the Sky box from more than one room.

No more interference, it works great!

Disadvantages - coax does not carry stereo sound from a Sky box.
                        - got to run cables

 :shock:

A pool room?? How fucking bigs your house?

It's a 12 bedroom house in West Swindon, he's the smaller version of Tony Montana.

I meant pool as in american pool as its no longer a dining room! Single life rules

Small being the word.

ha ha spud, ps not ahd a resoponse from my mate yet about phone

Do I need to find your mrs and tell her about your spending in Leeds?

Women!  :evil:

I got the Sky bloke round and said I want different channels in different rooms, here's £20 for your troubles.

Microwave works fine too.

 :)

No thankyou
