I'm after some advice on how best to approach redoing TV distribution in my house.
Previously I had been with S*y and had two box multiroom setup.
Downstairs in the lounge had been the main S*y HD box. This had the RF-out passed into a LCD in the conservatory as only means of connection.
Upstairs in the bedroom had the second S*y box with dual tuner.
There is no DVB-T ariel installed in the house. Only DVB-S.
I've now commenced on operation Freesat. The goal is to have HD in all of the above mentioned rooms, preferably with independent channel selection.
The downstairs box is now a brand new Vu+ Solo2 running Vix 3.0 and is working really nicely.
I had bought a raspberry Pi running openelec and configured the Vu+ PVR client over powerline in the conservatory. Although this works the UI is very slow on the Live TV function.
This will not be an acceptable solution for SWMBO.
The bedroom has the old S*y box as an interim solution but will need to be replaced in 30 days once the S*y cool down period ends and loose all PVR functions.
So I'm back to the start again. Not sure what is the best cost effective solution and I would prefer to take advice on those who may have been here.
My thoughts are, another dual tuner like the new TM-Nano-2T or Vu+ solo in the bedroom with powerline. The conservatory a TM-nano-oe with "remotestreamconverter"
