Why not use a signal booster like the audio/video showroom uses and drive as many display as you want? tongue.gif

1. yes you can.
2. how long is the cable, surely there would be signal lost, hence i mentioned a signal booster. RF no cable involved. depending on the quality of the transmission.
3. signal splitter and booster.

glad i bumped into this thread... i'll face similar situation, one decoder, 2 LCDs.... one LCD in living room & one LCD in bedroom (directly behind living room wall).

Anyways, I plan to connect via S-video to AV receiver & HDMI from AV Receiver to LCD for living room. The problem is for Astro connection to bedroom... my contractor already installed a co-axial wire from living to bedroom (through the wall). My question is :

1) can i connect bedroom LCD to living room decoder with this co-axial cable?
2) PQ & AQ with co-axial is good enough or is the wireless RF link better?
3) what's the best solution for this ?

Thanks.

I saw a 3 way MASPRO splitter and booster selling for RM45. Cheap!
Yes.. there should be a coax(RF input). PQ not that good lah. tongue.gif
