AV Sender/Receivers - Worth it?

[Presti_is_god]

Hey,

I'm trying to find out if these things actually work. Can i really watch foxtel in another room with one of these things?

Anyone have them setup already?

Yes, I have one that shend my Foxtel signal to my bedroom. I have the Fox connected to the lounge TV through the SCART output and the sender plugs into the component output.

Is the quality of picture/sound the same?

Is the quality of picture/sound the same?

no noticable difference (actually i'd say it looks better but that's only because the lounge tv is full hd and foxtel looks crap on it.)

Negatives are:
it and the wireless router interfere with each other meaning I can only use one at a time. (can be solved by getting more expensive senders that work on 5.g ghz rather than 2.4ghz)
The neighbours have a big dish and I'm sure that when they're using it it interferes with the signal.
