    i would have thought that the rf out on the dvd player would only send what the dvd player is showing

    Code:
    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RF-MODULATOR-No-Scart-to-Coax-Aerial-convert-DVD-TV-/281046599996?pt=UK_Sound_Vision_Other&hash=item416faec93c
    something like that would work take it off the solo scart

    The RF out on that will probably only be for what's recorded on the DVD Recorder and will only display what's currently being displayed on there, is there an option to select AV on the DVD recorder?, that may then pass the signal, but if it does it means the DVD recorder will have to be left on AV to pass the signal. RF modulators are available on ebay and in maplins.

    You could use a video sender if you don't use wifi, if you do use wifi you can get them that work on the 5ghz band.

    An RF-modulator uses CVSB: the lowest video life-form on earth. Trust me on this: you don't want that.
    And there are plenty of HD-capable options as well!

    They might not have HD capable TV's upstairs and the house is already wired with co-ax so the OP may already be happy with that as they were using it with their previous box.

    LAN over COAX is a good option.

    Agreed, but I am now having memories of the old 10BASE2 days

    You can also get HDMI over coax, all options are not cheap though, LAN over coax will require STBs or other devices.

    Is running CAT5 cable an option Jadejackellie?, as you can get HDMI baluns.
