Always happy to help if we can. I don’t think this solution is possible on a Virgin box. What you can possibly do is connect your box via Ethernet to your router and use your smartphone and a Virgin app to control it. our sky box had only 1 RF Output, if I remember correctly. So you can only connect 1 Sky Eye at a time. (even if it had 2 RF outputs, I don’t know if you can put a signal on both at the same time). the sky eye that we used is plugged in to the antenna output of the sky box. You can activate the antenna output to power the sky eye, so that no other power source is needed.
All the solutions above will be suitable if you have a curved TV that is wall-mounted. However, if you’re a crafty person, you might explore using either velcro or cable ties to attach the box into the mount or even into the TV itself.I seen someone commenting in 2017 and saying they were late to this thread and here is me coming in at the end of 2021. Not to mention the tangled mess of random cables and remotes that seem to take over the corner of your living room and whose sole purpose it seems to be to collect dust. Elegance Redefined: Elevate your living space with a sophisticated Sky Q box mount that blends seamlessly with your decor. Crafted from premium mild steel, this mount is an epitome of durability and aesthetics. It was really easy! The cable trunking is just placed into a recess that we drilled into the wall and plastered over. Then we just fed the cables through the channel to the TV. As for using the sky box in the cupboard, we used this Magic Eye in combination with a coax cable. The cable is fed through the cable trunking and connected to the sky box, the magic eye is then connected to the other end of the cable and positioned on top of the TV. Really straight forward! Wish we’d done it ages ago! What a fab gadget! I’m a bit of a luddite but hate trailing wires and cables. We have our tv on a horrible modern unit because it has an open front. Now I know we can use a cupboard instead I’m going to get it changed!
I am guessing from the post, I will also have to run a cable from the bedroom which would be no problem. Is the cable the normal TV cable or is there specialised ‘Sky TV Cable’?.. possibly a dumb question! We particularly find the Goldline Sky box floating shelf appealing due to its minimalistic glossy finish, sturdy column, and two toughened clear glass tops. Both glass surfaces have a large area (350 x 300 mm) and 10 kgs of max load capacity, so you can put your streaming media players and smaller home decors right alongside the regular Sky Q or Sky Q Mini box.That’s exactly what we used to do, Lizzy! It’s amazing what a difference a little gadget for just a few pounds can make. Not sure if the eye we used is compatible with Virgin boxes, but there’ll definitely be one available that is. I like things to work without seeing (or knowing) how it’s done. I like things to be tidy, neat and done in a particular way. Most importantly though, I like to hide things. Optimal Functionality: Enjoy complete access to all ports and ensure the longevity of your Sky Q box with proper airflow. We’ve actually just switched to Virgin, but haven’t updated the eye yet. We’ll try and get it done and keep you updated.
You love watching your favourite shows and movies on your Sky Q box. But you hate how it takes up space on your cabinet or table. And you hate how the wires are messy and tangled. And you hate how sometimes your remote or WiFi doesn’t work properly because of the interference from other devices. You wish there was a better way to enjoy your Sky Q box without these hassles. Well, there is. Introducing the Sky Q Box Wall Mount by Dynas. This wall mount is crafted from high-quality mild steel, and durable materials, ensuring both aesthetics and longevity for your device. It lets you mount your Sky Q box behind your TV, freeing up cabinet space and hiding all the messy wires. And it doesn’t affect your remote or WiFi at all, thanks to the Bluetooth technology and the smart design of the wall mount. I have a 2 sky boxes. One in bedroom and one in the sitting room. I would like to be able to watch one from the kitchen but I do not want to either pay for another one or move the other 2. As you can imagine the bedroom one (you’ll never guess) is used at night time and I was thinking about installing one of these Magic Eyes in the Kitchen to operate the bedroom one. So (finally) the question.. Will I be able to change channels from the kitchen via the eye? Is it expensive?
I think you will need an adapter or a cable with the ends that fit into the sky box and into the sky eye. If I remember correctly, the box and the sky eye have the same type of connector, so you need an adapter that both end go into. As we wanted to use the sky eye a bit further away, we used an old coax cable that had the right connections on it. Great idea – I have a small question though – I don’t want to run another TV in a room with this. Like you – I just want to cover all the boxes up and just have a small receiver to use the remote. Where do you plug it in and do you need additional wires to power it. As said I only want to use this as a IR extension so the box can stay in the cupboard and we can still change channels on the loving room TV. If you are a minimalist, chances are you also have your big screen wall-mounted, giving you more living room space for additional home decor. However, if you find that one Sky Q box hooked up to your TV and the dangling wires eyesore, we have a few remedies to share with you in this guide. Where to Put Sky Box with Wall Mounted TV? Wireless Freedom: Say goodbye to worries about remote control and WiFi signal strength with Bluetooth technology. You want to hide sky box but still use remote? You’re in the right place to find a practical solution. Wall-mounted TV’s have become the new normal in terms of home installation TV’s. No longer do homes have big, clunky TV sets that require an entire cabinet to be placed on. Now it’s all about sleek wide screens placed flush against the wall for the greatest viewing pleasure. These slim beauties are now also considered to form a large part of the current home décor trend. Trying to get your sky Q box receiver connected to the closest position and without having annoying wires dangling across the wall is still a challenge for many people these days. The good news is that finding a solution to this unsightly wiring problem is not only possible but highly likely and easily affordable too. Where to put Sky Q Box with wall mounted tv
There is actually more than one solution to placing your Sky Box in very close proximity to your wall-mounted TV, and with a large amount of ease too! Wall-mounted televisions have become the norm now that they come with enormous screens. Resting such flatscreen or curved TVs on a cabinet simply takes too much space, so it only makes sense to mount them flush against the wall. Established in 2015 in Ipswich, Dynas embarked on a mission to declutter living spaces, offering innovative solutions for modern homes. While our game console wall mounts are a popular choice, our diverse range of wall mount solutions cater to a myriad of needs, ensuring every corner of your home can be organized aesthetically. Hi, I am looking at doing this on my new TV but I would also like to run the same thing on a TV upstairs in the bedroom do you know if its possible to have 2 sky eye’s running from 1 box? (Appreciate you can only watch the one channel). Regarding your cables, just remember that your TV is still connected to the box with cables, the eye just allows you to put the box somewhere hidden.I don’t think that a sky eye would work, as it’s a differnt kind of sensor for the playstation. You’d be surprised at how well the Playstation controller works though – we tested ours and tried controlling the Playstation while standing in another room and it worked well. I’d recommend trying the same with yours and then you’ll know if you can move it to a more hidden place. Just remember that the Playstation gets very warm and needs lots of fresh air and shouldn’t be in a closed cupboard when it’s running. We always leave our cupboard open as wide as possible when the Playstation is on. Ultimate Organization: Unleash your living space from the clutches of clutter, with your Sky Q box neatly mounted on the wall. A symphony of sleekness, the Sky Q Box Wall Mount doesn't just hide your device; it enhances it.. There are options to split an antenna or HDMI feed though, but I never used any of these, so cannot tell if they work. Might be worth looking into… The transmitter is plugged in your bedroom and the receiver plugged in one of the rooms you wish to use the Sky box, pointing at the infrared receiver on your sky box. This won’t work with Sky Q. Only old boxes. I definitely think you can make an exception when it comes to cables, Nadine. Just remember that some electrical gadgets need ventilation – we still have to have the cupboard open when the Playstation is on…
