Does anyone know if I can run a 2nd TV in another room from a Humax

There's only one HDMI and no component sockets. Assuming you want to use
HDMI for two sets why not get an HDMI splitter box from the likes of CPC?
Even with bog standard leads you can run quite a way with HDMI. I've use a
10m lead but you should be able to go up to 15m.


My Humax box has an outlet the back labelled "LNB 1 Out" I have a coaxe
cable running between rooms that used to feed the second TV via a SLX Link
from the old Sky box. I was hoping that the coaxe cable could be re used to
run a satellite feed from the LNB 1 Out connection to the old sky box in the
other room. Sadly it doesn't seem to work that way despite the instructions
saying that his connection "connects to another digital satellite receiver"
