Virgin media installation

[schoe]

Just had a TiVo box installed in my living room yesterday and I was wondering if there is anyway I could run a cable into my bedroom so I can watch virgin upstairs and change the channel without having to go back downstairs. I no with sky you can install a magic that will do this I was just wondering if you could do the same with virgin.

I don't want to have another box upstairs just the ability to switch the channel from the bedroom,

Thanks in advance

Plenty of video senders on the market...Argos, Maplins...even Tesco`s....basically transmits video and remote signal from one unit to the other.

Best way to do it would be to install a HDMI splitter and run an additional HDMI cable (max length 15 mtrs) if you need a longer run you buy converters and run it over CAT5/CAT6 cable. Both options aren't as cheap as the old way but it will still be in HD. Some of the CAT5 systems support IR control as well. Have a look at CPC online
