This will be expanded as time permits.<br />
We have 4 bedrooms, and currently 5 adults sharing the space. There is satellite in two bedrooms and full HD in the lounge, with one of the bedroom boxes being linked to TV's in the study and workshop. Ideally though it would be nice to be able to simply select any source to any TV/Computer at some point. Which is the current target. There is currently a cable down to the garden room which is being kitted out as a second lounge area and it is kitting this out which has prompted the review.</p>
