I want to be able to show homevison messages on TVs around the house, with
the messages broadcast over the top of the existing TV program, is this
possible? I can see that it is possible to have a composite video feed
passed into Homevision and then the 'combined image' to be sent back out as
composite video. I can take a composite feed and modulate it so that it
appears on a dedicated channel. I can also use a signal booster/distributor
to pass UHF around the house.

I can see that if I had an aerial feed into a video recorder, took a
composite video feed out of that and into homevision, took a composite
video
feed (with overlay) out of homevision and into an rf modulator, took the rf
output from the modulator and into the booster/distributor I would then
have
'TV overlayed with Homevision' throughout the house, but everyone would be
watching the same channel to see the messages.

Am I missing some simple solution or is it impossible to achieve what I
want
to do.

Just in case this lot doesn't make sense, here is the bottom line:

Can I have homevision messages displayed over the top of terestrial TV
simultaneously on two TVs that are watching different channels?

Regards

Graham
