Cable/Satellite Boxes: I know that Dish Network charges me $15 per box per month for my DVR. Now think of the costs you can accrue over the course of a couple of years if you had a dedicated box for each of your six TVs. I am no mathematician but I think it is around $29,000. I am kidding but those costs quickly add up. With this system you can share a box for the house or I would recommend having just one box for each family member and let that follow them around the house. You will be able to access and control your box from any TV on the system. If you are watching a movie on the DVR in the living room and decide you want to continue watching in the bedroom, just press pause, turn that system off and choose the DVR in your bedroom. You will pick up right where you left off.

DVD Management & Distribution: No longer are these only for the very wealthy. Now the prospect of sharing a DVD library is a reasonable request for everyone. You can view your movies from any location in the home. Just like the DVR above you will have total control over the DVD server from every TV connected to the system. Our DVD server when coupled with the "players" can serve movies from the library to up to three locations at at the same time. Very advanced yet attainable technology!

What about the audio, I have a surround sound system?

The Multi-Room HDTV sytem also distributes not only standard analog audio, but will route coaxial digital audio too. Send it directly to your surround system and combine the signal with your local sources and you may never have to stand up again!

Is there a less expensive way to distribute HDTV?

In some cases... There are 2 reasons it is so expensive. First, this device allows an HDTV signal to be sent up to 1000 feet away (normal component video cable maxes out around 35 feet). Second, this device is multi-source.

If you had a TV 35 feet (or less) away from a single-source we could use standard component video cables and save a good deal of money.
