SKY Magic Eye

mark_steps

Hey guys,
I have heard about this and thought i could give it a try. I have SKY in the Living room and if i get Sky Magic eye, i still need to run a cable to the bedroom correct?
Is there a way to do this wirelessly?
So basically by doing this if say the OH is in the livingroom watching sky sports and i am in the bedroom, i can change the tv to watch say sky living in the bedrrom and thats what he will see in the livingroom??

Using the standard Sky magic eye you need to run a length of Coax this will cost around £12.00 in materials.

You could use senders and receivers to do the same thing wireless-ly, including HD if you wish, obviously with far greater materials cost.

Both sets will show the same picture.

Wireless sounds much better! haha im useless at attatching the "bits" to the coaxing haha....I have old coaxing (cable) that we used for the old Virgin setup. could i use this cable or does it need to be a certain one?

That cable will be fine.

I have magic eye in 3 rooms, all fed via outside coax from the sky box in 4th room. Get a spare remote, it will make things much easier than moving it around the house!

You can't do that anyway without Multi Room at £10+ / month.

Assuming you are on here with a computer and an internet connection, use SkyGo through your online account to watch something different.
