jagi00 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I'm looking to install a multiroom TV & audio system using a HDMI digital modulator with IR control and signal going to the various rooms via existing co-ax cables. If anyone has done this, I'd appreciate some feedback and also if anyone knows of any potential suppliers in Chiang Mai or Bangkok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dork Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I think any kind of molulator that could accept an HDMI input would be very expensive but anyway I don't quite understand why you would want to do that. You would lose all the benefits of HDMI in the outputted signal. Or have I misunderstood your question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astral Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 If you are starting with an HD source and HDMI cable that would seem to be the best way to go. Converting to coax you are going to loose quality Here is an article that may help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagi00 Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 Thanks for the replies. I'm prepared to accept some reduction in quality using co-ax as the house construction will not make it easy to run new cables and I don't want to use wireless. Can anyone recommend a Chiang Mai source of digital modulators? Cheers Jagi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I think you're gonna get a fright with the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagi00 Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 yep, they are around $3-4K in Oz but Alibaba have some good prices if I can avoid import tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinLOS Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Why not IP broadcast and use powerline networking.. Can be HD in a home network setup and far less cost. Plus it solves the control and command side of the problem and commands are IP handled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
