Hi loonies,
I could do with a bit of help.
We've had analogue cable tv for years and to get cable tv upstairs, we had a coax cable installed to a splitter and a signal amplifier thro the "TV out" of the cable tv decoder. this worked great untill..
Our local network was upgraded to digital, and we thought "hey great we'll get more channels and broadband just £25 extra a month"
But now the tv upstairs gets real bad picture, the cable company says its summat to do with copyright protection?
Any one here come across this before?
I also tried a video sender out of desperation.. but same results.
thanx
Follow Ups:
Make sure the splitter and amplifier are rated for at least 2GHz. My splitter is installed before the decoder, the TV-OUT then only goes to the TV, but you need 2 decoders this way. We get around this because our second TV is only used for the basic channels (news, networks, etc.) which do not need decoding. I have split my digital cable signal to 3 sources (main TV, second TV and internet) with very little loss, so you may not need an amplifier. Good Luck.
