Ah, interesting about the 2nd remote. My living room receiver is a Dish 522. It does say DishDVR on the front. The living room remote has to be pointed right at it but the 2nd will pick it up from the other room? If so then I think I know how to connect everything. Then I can either run DVDs from the living room or get a second player in the bedroom. I have it set up in the living room so that I can flip a switch on a splitter thing to direct the DVD to the tv rather than the satellite signal. It's the output from that "splitter" that I will split again and direct to the coax connection that goes to the bedroom as well.
My living room remote is so old, I'd like to replace it but don't realy want to deal with reprogramming all the codes into it but I guess I'll have to do that with my 2nd remote anyway.
Thanks for the help!
Ok, just reread what you said about the dual output. This is a diagram of the back of my receiver. Right now I have a cable coming out at tv 3-4 out. Where would the second cable going to wall plate to the bedroom come out?
