I actually split the astro to 4 TVs...
S-video - main TV downstair
Composite - HTPC
RF output (split using a splitter) - 2 TVs upstairs. However, one of the output signal is quite poor, i'm not sure it's the splitter problem or what.
For remote, last time i bought a device from Jalan pasar, it can tap on to the RF cable to transmit the signal from upstair to downstair...only about RM25.
Unfortunately, it only last 3 months...Made in China...can't expect much.

QUOTE(MyDevil @ Jan 22 2008, 09:55 AM) It could be your cable too long. I have the same problem last time and I changed the channel setting on the Astro to higher and the signal is better. Try it.  I dun understand. What do you mean by change channel setting to higher? One of the output has pretty good signal, but the other is poor. I switched the cable and it's reversed, so i can confirm it's not the cable problem...more like the splitter problem. I'm trying to find a good splitter now, but no time to go Jalan Pasar yet. |

QUOTE(MyDevil @ Jan 22 2008, 09:48 PM) ok. What I said earlier was the reverse  On your Astro decoder, go to installation setup -> manual configuration -> modulation channel. Change to the lowest which is 21. This will change the RF output channel of the decoder. Then, you have to re-scan the channel on your TVs again to search for the right one. Good luck.  Thanks, i'll try it out later. |

Seriously guys, just buy a wireless transmitter and decoder. I used to pull cables and split in my old house. After i moved to my new place, i use a wireless receiver/transmitter....the quality is way better than cables and i can use my ASTRO remote from any of the receiving station TV upstair!! Only RM2xx for 1 transmitter and 2 receivers...bought it from a forumner here. http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1347595&hl= |
