[QUOTE="Marlow Wilson, post: 15163, member: 47"] Re: Small venue video distribution No fixed budget. I am the managing director of the company which is owned by the student union, so I have some discretion, though obviously don't wont to waste money. The current system works and I can easily add more HD cable boxes and run HDMI to the projector for protected content playback. I was just venturing out there to see if there was a reasonable solution to tie everything together as you can imagine having 5+ cable terminals gets messy when you want to change the channel, or when a staffmember turns subtitles on or changes other settings trying to fix some other 'problem'. If the ease of use doesn't outweigh the cost than it's not worth it. For reference, we installed three Soundweb's and and several programmable remotes which has greatly simplified the audio side of the operation. This improvement has me looking for similar opportunities for the video and lighting systems. I got the Soundwebs and remotes used and buying the same system new would have been out of budget. I know the formats in video make it complex and expensive which is why I sought out the advice. Thanks, Marlow [/QUOTE]
