Is that right? That is correct

When I get my HDTV in the Bedroom however, I won't be able to view the recorded material in HD this way still only SD - unless I run the components all the way up right? Yes correct againIs there some length that I cannot run HD signal through components or hdmi whereby the signal degrades too much? I see 100ft cables at Monoprice, will they work?I guess if they sell them they must work

When installing the HD receiver in the bedroom just ensure you get 2 Diplexers, this will allow you to have your HD receiver show HD on the second TV and get all your recordings in SD from the 9242.
