Id like a small smart tv for my study but i would like it to show 2 images, for example normal tv and then cctv cameras. I sent watch a lot of either but it would be nice to have.
Im sure years ago you could watch 2 channels at once on certain tvs. Cant seem to find anything now.

Id also like to hide a sky box in a cupboard, i can run all cables and work that out but how would the remote operate? Magic eye? I thought they made the picture quality worse? Or was that in the same dream as the multiple pictures in one screen memory hehe

Are the new controllers not bluetooth these days? Most other stuff is.

Don't know about the latest boxes as I refuse to pay - but magic eye is the means but you don't use it to carry the picture you see using that. My sky box is on the loft, I have a long HDMI cable running to the main TV and I distribute the RF with Magic eye around the house including to the main TV. Works a treat, the magic eye doesn't care what setting your TV is on.

(For full disclosure because my TVs often don't have analogue tuners I convert a second HDMI signal from my sky box after a splitter to a Freeview channel and distribute that over RF so I get HD on all my other TVs).
