Trouble setting up multiple TVs and Sky/Tivo/Freeview
I have recently had a freeview aerial installed to replace the broken analogue one. My previous setup used the satellite and terrestrial signals into the Sky box, on into Tivo via scart and RF, then on to DVD recorder via scart and RF. Each box also connected directly to the TV via scart.
I then took the RF signal, boosted and split it so that the televisions in the kitchen, dining room and two of the bedrooms could watch everything via RF. This was working OK, except that playback of the DVD was a bit hit and miss.
When Freeview was fitted I took the DVD recorder out of the mix, as I have the Humax 9200T PVR. The problem I now have is that whilst I can get a decent Freeview signal to each TV (un-boosted) the RF signal wont carry the Tivo output. The Sky RF works fine, and I can even get the PVR RF output on the other sets, but the Tivo signal is just snow. I have changed the channel number well away from the other boxes, but nothing I have tried has yet worked.
Does anyone have any ideas please?
