Can somebody advise me please if this will work? if so, how do I connect it all up please ?

I currently have Sky HD in my lounge with sound via a Panasonic

sound surround system. HDMI from the Sky Box to the TV and audio

out from TV to Sound Surround system, everything works fine.

I would like put an HD Projector (Optoma HD600X-LV)in the room next to the lounge to use

as an alternative to watching Sky Sports in the lounge. I currently have a second TV

(on the house ariel) and an Onkyo TX-SR307 AV Receiver in the spare room.

If I drill a hole through the wall from lounge to spare room, the distance from lounge Sky Box

to the Onkyo AV system is about 1 and 1/2 M,s and the Projector will be 3- 5 Metre's away

from the Sky box.

How do I connect the spare room audio and Sky HD up please?

Thanks

Simply use one of THESE . I have my main TV in the Lounge and another in the kitchen/diner and run a 5M HDMI under the floorboards to the 2nd TV and it works 100% with no HDMI handshake issues or picture degredation so can't see why this wouldn't work for you.

Thanks for the advice

The HDMI part sounds good to go how about the audio though?

Can I come out of the Sky box Audio out, through the wall and into

the CBL/SAT plugs on the 2nd AV Receiver using std Audio RCA cable?

Thanks

Yes that'll work, in stereo, but I've got a feeling you're only getting stereo now anyway, Sky doesn't send 5.1 surround sound over HDMI, it'll only do that out of the optical/coaxial digital output. If you aren't using that you could take a digital cable from the Sky box straight to the second room AV receiver.
