We are putting a 2nd TV in, we have Virgin HD Cable for TV/Phone/Tinternet. Not sure wether to get freeview TV and a new aeriel or hook a 2nd TV into Virgin , I take it we'll need a new box ?
Might get a PS2 or something to plug in aswell, cant see it being used much for Tinternet.
yeah, you need virgin to come out again and install a new line/box. I just use an aerial for the other, still gets plenty of channels including BBC HD.
Video sender - we used this at our last house, while my son was Xbox-ing on the main (Sky) telly, we could watch on the other. Also used a magic-eye so the Sky remote worked. Saved paying for an additional room subscription. Now just use Sky Go thru the laptop (and onto the 2nd telly).
I think VM were giving away 2nd boxes if you upgraded to Tivo
Not sure if they still are or whether that interests you.
I was told that you couldn't use a sender with Virgin (don't ask me why, just repeating what i was told)
We upgraded to TiVo last year and the V+HD box was offered to us for no extra charge. Not sure if they still offer this though.
Give 'em a call and see what they can do for you.
I was told that you couldn't use a sender with Virgin
it outputs cvbs though the Scart socket, so not an issue
You can obviously only watch the same channels on both TVs though
I kept my V+ HD box when they put my tivo in.
But I am waiting for the new Slingbox that is being released now, so I can stream around the house. You would need to watch on some sort of computing device, like a laptop, tablet, all-in-one computer, etc.
Belkin have something similar out but I don't trust Belkin to support it.
Wife will get a tablet in the kitchen on which to whatch the soaps she records plus exercise vids on youtube...
