Hello, I don't know if this is the correct form, but here is my issue. Background information. I recently had Digital cable connected to my house and have two Digital converter boxes setup - 1 in living room and the other in the master bedroom. I decide to run cable lines to my two other bedrooms and do a direct connection to the TV sets. These two cables are connected to a 4-way splitter, which is connected to the Digital box in the living room. The problem is after I setup the connections, the TVs in the two rooms receive the cable signal, but the TV in the living has no video, only audio. If I disconnect the two back bedroom connections from the 4-way splitter, I get audio and video signal to the TV in the living room. Do I need to use a certain type of splitter? A special type of cable? Or do I need add two more Digital cable boxes to the bedrooms? Thanks for your input.
Our generation is very much equipped with high-tech inventions. One of this inventions introduced by our brilliant-minded individual is this satellite TV. The user itself should also take into considerations the system reliability as well as its affordability. This satellite TV on computer is really amazing. Through this, you can watch TV online any time you want. It provides more or less thousands of channels than the cable system. The satellite TV invention truly hits the global market since most of the customers prefer purchasing it since it has a better picture quality than the others.
Sounds like you are most likely having a signal amplification problem, so a splitter with a built in amplifier or a signal booster might solve this. The more cables you run out of a digital converter the less power you have going to each of your TVs, so your bedroom TV's are probably sapping the signal from your living room digital box and causing issues. Try unhooking the living room box and running cable just to the two bedroom TV's directly, then try running just to one bedroom TV and the living room TV and see what your results are. A little playing around will give you more information as to what the likely causes are. Most likely its signal strength. Rather than investing in another digital box from the cable company (with the added monthly cost) a good splitter/amplifier may be your best bet and will sort out your amplification and splitting in one unit. There is lots of decent equipment out there and you might be able to get away with a simple inline booster, I've got to assume best buy has something that you could try out to see if that solves your problem (my online search for Best buy didn't turn anything up but call your local store), just be aware of possible quality and resolutions trade offs.
