I never thought you were making a dig chap .

A cat5 matrix at a reasonable price is what is required from
somewhere....but where ?!

Gareth,

I wasn't trying to make a dig or upset anyone. I am just trying to
work through the options in my own mind before purchasing equipment.

>From what I have read the ideal soultion would be a HDMI matirx
switch with inbuilt balun for running over Cat5 to the TV in each
room. However, either such a product doesn't exist or would cost
10's thousands of pounds.

So to do it more cheaply I could use a componet matrix switch (they
are cheaper) but still quite expensive.

Or, from what I have read I could use a media centre PC connected to
Sky and stream over the network to a media centre extender?
