Hey guys -
Currently have 2 811s, and a 942. The 942s tv out backfeeds into the home distribution system on channel 100. I am looking to add a digital cable box to one of the tvs also. (Comcast has the MTV music suite, along with ondemand which I thought I would be ok without but it really is VERY handy. Anyways, all the tvs that have a sat box, have 2 feeds goin to them. (sat/OTA HD antenna comined with diplexers, and the 942 tv2 out for DVR playback) The rest of the tvs only have one feed with the TV2 output hooked upto it.
Now, my question is this - The dish guy unhooked the Comcast feed for all the lines except the ones that go to the living room, Cable modem, and Digital phone system so he could tie the TV2 into the house distribution system. If I want to put the Digital cable box on the tvs, would I use diplexers, or a combiner/splitter to integrate the tv2 output with the cable signal? (on a un-used channel of course) I'm not sure I understand differences enough to know which one I should use...
Thanks!
