Hi i have been looking for threads on this subject but couldn't find any. (i'm new to the site so still finding my way round it)

I have been using an rf modulator via the audio & video outputs of my gigablue to get the picture round my house but it's not great.

Is it possible to get the gigablue HD Quad Plus to output through the Hybrid tuner like a sky box uses the rf output?

Thanks in advance.

It's To Daisy Chain The Cable/Terrestrial Signal From One Tuner To Another, Or One Box To Another...

Why Don't You Use A HDMI Splitter, And Distribute It That Why... (All The TV's Would Need To Be Able To Work With The Same Output Setting e.g. 720p 50Hz)

Here's A 4 Way Output Splitter And It's Only £18...

Max Cable Length Is Upto 10m For Both Input Input And Output Cables...

Hi pac2000 thanks for the reply. Ideally I would like to do that but fitting the cables would be near on impossible. I already have coax fitted throughout the house from when i had sky and i have bought an omni link signal extender to power all the sky digi eyes so i can control the gigablue from any tv in the house.

I have tuned my tv's to get all the terrestrial channels from the loop out on the dvb tuner but i cannot tune my tv's (digital or analogue) to pick up a channel to receive any satellite or recordings from the gigablue like you can from the rf output of a sky box.

have i not set up the dvb tuner correctly or is it not possible to do.

Loop out does not mean RF out. Loop out will just forward the aerial signal. You will have to source an RF modulator.

Hi. I know, i was just hoping. I use an Rf Modulator at the minute but it isn't very good.

The Extender HDMI over Cat5/6 is the best method to get good quality signals in other rooms.
