I have an Xtrend ET10000 installed in my main TV room upstairs and am extremely satisfied with Openvix and with my settings. The box presently has 2 cable tuners, 2 satellite tuners and a hard disk.
If possible I would like to be able to watch exactly the same configuration on a second TV downstairs. There are various threads on the forum about second boxes, but the possibilities of a second box are a bit unclear to me. Ideally I would like to have an additional enigma box on the second TV that would be a "slave" to the ET10000, with its 4 tuners. I would like to access the same bouquets and control the upstairs ET10000 box completely from the new downstairs slave box. Is this possible and does it work well? If so, what would be the minimum configuration that I would need downstairs and what would be a good choice of slave box?
Presently I can view hdmi from the upstairs box on the downstairs TV via a CAT5 video transport cable, but I cannot control the box properly with the remote.
I would be grateful for any advice.
