Default Sky Plus Question.Videosender?

Okay with my current Sky Box - I have a video sender connected to vcr scart
and it pipes pics around the house with ease.

If i did this on a sky plus box - would i get the signal that's being
recorded relayed round the house or would i get the ability to watch another
channel around the house whilst Sky Plus is recording another? Do you
see...........? Or can i choose which one to watch remotely - live Sky or a
recording?

Thanks

Dave

You will see whatever is being displayed on your tv downstairs. If you
record a channel and also have it showing on your main tv you will see that.

If you record for example Sky movies 1 and then set your box to view Sky
movies 2 then you will see sky movies 2.

You can't watch a different channel from the one the Sky+ box is outputting to
the TV/VCR (which might be what's being recorded, but probably not). But you
do get to use the Sky+ facilities from all the other TVs, which is very nice
indeed...

On a different theme ...

I got sky plus today and asked for a 2nd remote for the telly upstairs (I've
got a video sender). Do I set the 2nd remote up the same as the old sky
remote for the 2nd telly ? I seem to remember to configure it for use on the
selected TV, it was select and red and then the TV code, select to finish ?

Any help would be appreciated as the info that Ive seen only relates to
normal sky remote controls and not sky plus ?

Regards

So presumably you have the manual?

The answer is "yes" more or less. It's all in the manual.
