Hello all... great forum you've got going over here!

I'm not very advanced when it comes to audio/video setup but I do know most of the basics haha...

I am trying to help out a friend who is setting up a place that has about 20 lcd tvs in it. Right now she has the main cable line coming in and then it splits out to all 20 tvs. She will be installing a camera that overlooks the stage area of her venue and would like to have that camera feed to all 20 tvs when the act comes on. It seems to me that with all the technology today that there would be something simple that we could install between the main cable line and the 20 splits that would allow this to work. I would assume that the feed from the camera would also plug into this "box".

Anyone know what I am looking for or how to solve my friend's dilemma?

Thank you all so much in advance!

It would be easier to suggest things if we knew what standard this 'cable' was. Is it coaxial? component, hdmi? you get my drift

So all you`re looking for is to duplicate a signal to all TVs...

If coax is already run to some head end, then that`s relatively easy.

You could start with something like this...

You can easily split the signal into two at the source, and use these, though I`d recommend an amp before the splitters.

If you`re looking for a high dev signal, I`d look into IPTV solutions, which can also easily be split at the source. You`d need to run cat5 to each TV. Take a look at Extron Electronics.
