can anyone attach the diagram to split 2 tv with different channel? I will go to Pasar Road today survey for the equipment needed. Can anyone help me for a list need to buy?

i bought the device controlling astro from other room using single astro decoder.

the device cost me around rm80...

interesting topic....when u guys mention coaxial for astro...i thought astro using RG6? or regular RG59?

I intend to split my astro to another room, gotta do it now during renovation.

RG6

is there a splitter for 3 tvs? so far been reading about 2 way splitters.

just a confirmation....
satellite dish --> decoder (main hall)
from the decoder (main hall) have to lay RG6 cables to each tv in other rooms including of the IR controller cables too?

any other kind of cables that advise to use for astro? both the room is about 20meters away.

does that make any sense?

when we use the cable splitter, did we need also for IR controller to control 2nd unit tv?
how gonna check that cabling it working for ASTRO GOLD card? i'm afraid is not working ...

anyone went to Pasar Road to buy the equipment? can recommend what shop did you go. i need it URGENTLY right now. or did the shop can advise and teach how to do it?

I also interested to know what kind of equipment that can watch astro by 2 tv at different channel with 1 decoder. Is there such a kind of equipment allow to do so as told by the forumer here.

If want to watch astro using 1 decoder for 2 tv, im thinking that you can use a wireless av transmitter to connect your 2nd tv..

wireless is abit expensive at ~RM300, whereas the repeater using the old TV anttenna (RG6 cable?) will cost you < RM100 inc of installation. However on the new Astro beyond, there is no RF out port..so u need additional RF-AV converter..

Oh BTW, this thingy is not new. I hv been using it since ~2003/2004

hey guy if i get a astro b.yond, what gadget should i use so that i can view astro on my second tv? i will prefer to use a wireless gadget.
how much is it ? where can i get it from?

If u don't have the older Astro RF remote transmitter, Than just get the wireless AV transmitter will do..You can get this from garage sales...or certain eletricla shops /Jln Pasar..Here's one of the example:

For those having the existing old RF remote transmitter..abit difficult bcos the new Astro don't have RF port!! U need to convert the RCA signal 1st to RF & thereafter to the RF remote tranmitter using a converter..My converter look like this:

what is RF stand for?

rf = radio frequency

Is there such a way to use 1 decoder to watch 2 different channels legally? Don't think so.... Astro is not so stupid...

hi...i'm planning to transmit astro to my new lcd tv and i want to use the wireless device but i got abit confused when i see the wireless av transmitter device (Hum brand), as i can see the connection output is RCA (yellow, red, white)...

my question is how are we going to connect it to the astro decoder?if i connect the wireless transmitter RCA (yellow, red, white) to the astro decoder how about current connection? fyi my decoder are currently used the s-video and composite (red & white) connection..so if i use the RCA connection to the wireless transmitter i'm afraid that current tv will not get audio signal ...so do i need 2 receiver (1 for current tv another for new tv) or there are any other solution?

sorry as i got confused abit, hope anyone can help me...btw where can i find this HUM wireless AV transmitter?seems its webpage also not available...

thanks

FYI, HUM no longer available on the market. You may go to pasar road and ask around for alternative av transmitter. To connect 2 tv, may be you can get rca splitter to get 2 TVs connected.

oh okay..anyway can anyone suggest me any other good brand to use with astro...preferably the one with less problem and can give best picture quality ..

any previous user comment/advise are welcomes...thanks

some confuse..

composite AV port = RCA port?

AV spliter = RCA spliter?

Cables can be custom made, by AV shops ... cheaper than those prepackaged brand ones in stores

Coaxial is not as sensitve as hdmi or digital cables.

Whether use cable or wireless, just split the signal at astro output point ... any combo works.

Try this it works for me......Obtained this from ACE Ikano Power Center
