It will work but I would suggest you use the RF amplifier - much better picture quality. The Sky+ box needs a SCART connection to the BV7 as well as the HDMI (I expect it already does.) You will have full control upstairs.

Yes, you will need an aerial cable to connect rf out of your BV7 to BC6 input. It`s important that you have analog video and audio from your sky box (I have no sky box, so I can`t help here). Maybe you will need an RF link amplifier, depends on picture quality on your BC6. If Link frequency is set to default, you don`t have to change anything here. Otherwise you must tune in the correct frequency to the BC6. To control mainroom devices you need a Masterlink cable - already connected. No, you don`t need a BL video. It`s for older TVs without ML connection. Link TV must be set to V.OPT 6.

Unfortunately I can`t answer your first question, the long one...maybe the correct answer is "42"...?

Hope this helps

Stefan

I have a BV7-32 mk3 in the main room with a sky+ box attached via scart and stbc. In my bedroom I have a BC6-26.

I would like to be able to watch the sky+ in the bedroom / link room. The two sets are already connected by masterlink via a Beocentre 2 (so I can hear audio on the BC6-26).

To watch the sky+ (or dvd in the BV7) on the BC6 I take it I need to connect the rf out of the BV7 into rf in on the BC6. Do I also need a beolink video? Or is that for older tv’s only?

Many thanks
