Distribution of video signal to multiple TV using a matrix
Good Day
New problem for me. I know very little about video signal so ''Any help is
welcomed''.
I would like to distribute video through my house, but nothing fancy. I
already have a video matrix (8 inputs & 8 outpouts) that can display any
inputs to any outputs. The matrix accepts only composite video and audio
(left and right). The actual matrix:

I have 3 inputs:
1- Regular cable (Coax with f-type connector);
2- Digital cable (Composite video and audio);
3- DVD (Composite video and audio).
I have no problem with #2 and 3. I can process them through the matrix and
it works ok.
How do I feed the matrix with standard cable (input #1)? What I would like
to have is that the input go into the matrix then to multiples TV and have
each TV on a different channel. That would mean that the original signal,
the one that carries 'all channels' on the coax from the cable provider is:
1) changed into Composite video and audio;
2) processed by the matrix;
3) spitted out of the matrix to multiples outputs;
4) carried to the multiples tv;
5) each tv can select the channel.
Is that possible? Any idea how I can acheive that?
A side question to my problem: is 50ft too long to carry composite video?
Thank you for reading and helping.
