Hello everybody, newbie here! I'm currently in the process of re-wiring my house as we have building work going on.
I wish to set up a multi-room two-dish setup, but I'm having a little trouble working out how I'm going to do it.
I will have a fixed Sky minidish for 28.2E Sky UK, and another motorised dish for other satellites for watching football and stuff that isn't on Sky.
I want to have have two cables in each room (10 rooms altogether for future-proofing's sake) so that I can potentially put a twin-tuner receiver anywhere I like.
I will set up one Linux box as a server with my Sky card in it, and all other Linux boxes will share the card details. This is all in-house and I will not be sharing my card details with others or sharing anybody else's Sky card.
All receivers should be able to connect to the fixed Sky minidish, but I also want to give every receiver the ability to connect to the motorised dish, too, while other receivers are connected to the Sky Minidish.
Do I need to use some sort of multiswitch or a number of multiswitches?
If anybody can shed some light on how they would set up a complete dual-dish, 10-room, twin-tuner setup, I'd really appreciate the input.
Thanks!
