For years I have had a second set top box in bedroom - Scientific Atlanta supplied by Virgin. The TV in the bedroom was connected to this box via the scart connection.
I then used the coax arial outlet at the back of the set top box to feed down to our kitchen via amplifier that also had ordinary arial programmes connected to it and then via ordinary co ax cable. This allowed us to watch what was on in the bedroom box to be seen in the kitchen - great when say cricket was on Sky Sports! The coax was routed with an ordinary arial feed to the kitchen via an amplifier, always worked perfectly. We could always change normal five channels on kitchen TV and see on the sixth what was on the bedroom box!
However the Scientific box went kaput yesterday and the Virgin man has replaced it with a brand new Samsung set top box. Setting it up in exactly the same way as before, the TV in the bedroom is perfect, but the piicture/sound reception in the kitchen is hopeless, can be hardly seen and very grainy.
Is there any way we can rectify this and get the picture down to the kitchen. The kitchen is fed by normal coax cable. Can scart be fed through this such coax cable or can someone think of another way.
I cant have another Virgin box installed as I already have the maximum three - lounge, bedroom, family room
