Affordable Video Over IP as Standalone Devices?
dantbh asks: "I am working for a music club / bar that has several large rooms in its building. We want to distribute a video signal from a camera in one of the rooms to multiple television sets in other rooms. Because of the changing layout of the rooms, as well as the construction style of the building, it has been determined that using a wireless solution to transmit the video signal makes the most sense. I am curious as to whether any Slashdot users have ever worked with standalone hardware devices that will take an IP connection(in this case from the wireless network) and output it over standard composite or coax connections. I have found several devices, such as the one at Eagle CCTV, but these devices are somewhat expensive. Are there any cheaper solutions out there?"
Wait. Am I missing something?
It's just a composite video signal you need to transmit?
Does it *have* to be over IP?
You seriously can't do this with normal $50 analogue 2.4GHz wireless transmitters/recievers, of which there are such a plethora of I won't even bother posting a link?
I am mystified as to what you are trying to do dragging IP into this, that's all.
You are in a twisty maze of processor lines, all alike.
There is a lot of hype here.
