Hi all,

I've always used a video sender things to connect my Sky TV box downstairs with my TV on the wall in my bedroom.

I've been through a few different units over the years, they usually cost about £40 then break after a few years. It's worked reasonably well over this time especially as the receivers are usually tiny enough to hide behind the TV on the wall, and the Sky remote works fine from upstairs.

But recently it has really been getting on my tits as it's only standard definition, and my new TV shows up the poor resolution really badly, and the signal has been suffering terrible intermittent interference from somewhere that I cannot solve.

So... can anyone recommend any decent HD video senders?

What methods do you all use to watch TV in other rooms?

I don't require to watch different channels in different rooms hence why the senders have been fine.

To do in HD is alot harder.

There are a couple of HDMI / HD Video senders but they are significantly limited by distance.

A quick google throws up these.

Or maybe this, that uses PowerLIne Tech rather than wireless, depending on how good your electrics are.

(PH Disclaimer - I have never used any of these, so they are untested, unknown and this is not a recommenedation)

I'm interested in this as well OP so let us know what you end up doing. I was planning a Sky Q box but seems a waste if I can just share the existing one.
