Hi,

Looking to have the ability to show Sky on multiple TV's around the place broadcast over DVB-T rather than analogue, does anyone know a good solution for doing this.

Use case (And I haven't checked sky's T&C's on this) but most of the time we would like to show BBC world in the reception area, but for the odd client function we would like to show Sky Sport on the board rooms big screen plus a tv in the joining lunch room, but without having to move the sky decoder. 

Decoder would likely be a MySky so HDMI is available. 

TV's/Freeview DVB-T boxes would hopefully tune into a locally broadcast digital channel. 

Thanks

sbiddle: You can pick up a modulator for around $1k that'll do DVB-T/H.264

There has been a lot of cheap Chinese stuff appear on the market lately and it is possible to get devices doing dual component to MPEG2 DVB-T for around US$500. I have no idea what they're like though.



Yeap looks like that will end up being the go, we were expecting around 3k mark, but 1kish is doable.

 

Thanks
