Driftwoodturning 0 Posted December 25, 2018 Hello folks, new here as may be evidenced from the next question. I just got a Wisenet 4 camera hardwired camera system. My question: can I run the hdmi output from the “control box” as an input to my unused dishnetwork coax system so that every tv in the house can be used as a monitor? If so, could I use additionally use one of those “do daddy’s” that kids use to record video games to a thumb drive that would be located in my gun safe? Sorry for the ignorance, I suspect I can’t find the answer on google because I don’t know how to ask the question with the proper terms. thanks all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cortian 9 Posted December 26, 2018 Sorry, nope. HDMI, the signals carried by coax, and USB are all different, incompatible things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trex88i 0 Posted January 5, 2019 Newbie here also and starting to design an extensive system for the house, so I came to this forum to review options and similar setups I'm looking to try and implement. I was planning on either doing HDMI out from the box to either a Coax distribution throughout the house to all TVs or possibly HDMI over wifi to 1 or 2 main TVs. I'm a career Network Admin for 20+ years and I understand most network technology, but haven't dabbled much in TV signaling, but my question would be, why couldn't you use a HDMI to Coax modulator or HDMI to DVB-T modulator for this distribution?
