Cool AV wireless help

Hi Guys,

I've got one of these. Its an ADSL modem that has a scart connection on the back and I get around 60 digital TV channels with it. The only problem is that my PC and the TV are at different ends of the house.

I don't think that Mrs LP will let me run a scart cable the length of the house!

Are there wireless options?

Also there is an unused Satelite coaxial cable that passes under the floor close to my PC and ends at the TV. Is there,perhaps, method of changing the AV signal to a RF signal so that I could use this cable?

Thanks in advance

LP

You can get a Scart to AV adapter - widely available at most Hi-Fi / Radio Shack type stores :

but you wouldn't be able to use the Co-ax cable as you need more than the single core and outer braiding of that type of cable.
If you could replace the Co-ax with some Phono AV cables ( maybe use the co-ax to try and pull it through under the floor ? )
and you had a TV card in your PC with corresponding inputs, you could use one of these adapters.

You would need 3 phono cables ( 1 for video and other two for stereo sound ).

Sorry - Don't know of a wireless solution.
