Hi I have a bv7-40 in my front room that my sky box is connected to and my beo4 controls this perfectvia stb, I have then used the rf out on my sky box and run a cable up to a bv6-26 in my bedroom via a sky magic eye. This works perfect when then using the sky remote but you also have to use the beo4 to turn the tv on and adjust the volume.

I would love just to use the beo4 remote as i am used to this, but just dont know if it is possible to configure a blaster onto the magic eye to control the sky box but the picture has to show the rf out as to use a sky magic eye it has to be turned in. It is only a 26" screen and the picture quality is fine in the room.

 

Please Help!!!!

If you run master link cable between the two products as well then this will give you complete control on the Bvis 6-26.

Yes thank you but, I have no way of running a master link cable as I just used the existing aerial cable and joined them at the splitter. Thank you again

I don't think that will work, as the puc outputs can't be assigned to the analogue "TV" input.

 

there is always a way of running a ml cable, you might just need to involve your dealer or an electrician.

 

You could also program the sky remote to work the TV.

ppress sky to turn TV on to analogue input, control sky box, volume works from sky remote, press "TV" "standby" to turn off.

 

this is what we do with a bv6 that is not on the ml network.  I think we used remote code 593, instructions are on sky website.
