Default RF lead carrying SKY into projector

RF lead coming into my office carrying decoded SKY from my SKY digi box in the living room.

Need to get SKY on my office projector (via my A/V amp)

Projector obviously doesn't have a tuner to accept the RF lead

Whats the best solution - would a freeview box do the trick ?

ie RF lead > Freeview Box > A/V amp > Projector ?

Got an old VCR floating about? You can use that to convert the RF to composite.

I haven't.

I want to use as little space as possible. Would a small freeview box do the trick?

Or would it be best to get a new lead made up from the SCART VCR output on the SKY DIGI BOX ?

What connectors does the projector have ?

Does the RF lead go just to the Sky box ?

Assuming it's got a regular video in, then I'd put RCA plugs on the RF lead. Get a SCART > RCA convertor plug for the Sky box & use that - no need for a tuner at all then.
