Sky Transmitter
Discussion
My SKY+ box gave up on Friday - the controller stopped working with the box, everything else works fine, but I it won't recieve any signal from a remote. Bloody inconvenient as I've got a harddrive full of stuff I wanted to watch, including last weeks GP that is no longer on iPlayer! The kind people at Sky offered me a warranty at £10 per month?! so £120 for a year, when a new box with a years warranty is only £99; strange pricing strategy there!! So I upgraded to HD for £49 instead.
Anyway....I currently have one over those trasmitter things so I can watch Sky+ in the bedroom, it works via the scart on the back of the box; my question is, will this still work with the HD box being HDMI, not Scart? If not, is there something similar on the market that will do the same job?
TIA

Hey thanks for the response; I had it installed this morning and it's all working fine via the scart.
One thing is bugging me with the HD box though, is that it's quite loud. Sounds like a fan is running all the time making a high pitched noise; is this common to all HD boxes? I'm sure in time I won't notice it, but it's annoying me at the moment!!

Firstly, if the box has a fault then phone Sky and ask them for a new one else you will leave and go to Virgin.
Secondly, make sure the HD box has lots of space around it and plenty of air circulation. They get very hot (eg if you put a DVD player on top of it or under it for that matter) and will expire (permanently) if you're not careful.
