video distribution from one PC to 4 TVs

Recommended Posts

i need to make video distribuition from one PC where i have monitoring 4 sites remotely, i'm thinking to add a video card to the PC and then send the video output to a multiplexer and then run composite video cable to LCD TVs; am i right or there is a best way to do that.

I use a video-over-cat5 distribution system; it's made by StarTech.

 

I use the four-port model, and it distributes the view from the DVR head-end over UTP to several TVs in the house. I switch the "source" on the TV to the "monitor" input, and I have a tiled view of all the security cameras.

 

Works great... highly recommended

come out of PC video card and into modulator inline with TV Dist amp you already have, tune spare channel on TV to view

 

Why use a multiplexer?

 

If your going to composite to each TV you'll need a CCTV dist 4 way amp, again come from Video card Comp output into CCTV dist amp and then feed to each TV AV input

you are right Neutech, it's not a multiplexer it's a splitter, anyway, i will to make the setup with a 4-way video splitter / amp. the sawbones idea is good but expensive.

 

Thanks a lot friends
