Please can someone help....
I bought a 19" LCD yesterday for my bedroom and the aerial reception (even though it's off the same input as the living room ) is pants !!!
I thought that maybe if i can run a cable from my Virgin Media box to plug into the bedroom tv then the reception will be better as the picture will be through my set top box.
Being a girly i'm ashamed to say i haven't a clue where to start or what to buy, i've looked on Ebay to see if there's a kit but to be honest i wouldn't know what i was buying or where to plug it in, either in the bedroom or living room.
someone mentioned a magic eye at work but don't really know if this would work with Virgin Media ?
Please could someone advise of what i need to do ?
Sorry to sound so thick.....:o

I got mine working after a bit of trial and error but it works great now.
Uses the Virgin remote as well to change the channels.0 -

did you need an aerial connection in the other room ?5k in 2010 member #80 - £217.00/£5000 :eek:0 -
I haven't tried it again yet while I am on the internet so I don't know.
If it still corrupts it I will either try the AV thing on a different channel setting or just switch it off when I am on the internet.
I don't think you need an aerial in the other room as the picture is being sent from the main TV. However, I do have one of those wee set top things plugged in anyway.0
