I dont know very much about stacking but I was wondering if it could be used for a tivo unit and work properly? I thought I have seen this with the old ultimate TV's

I just got finished with an install in a $1,000,000 ++++ house and he wants a tivo in a room in the middle of the house downstairs. The ceilings downstairs are 25 feet high and no crawl space so running another line is out of the question.

I thought about putting the tivo in another part of the house but where he wants it is in the attic were the multiswitch is "just difficult enough customer to be a little bit of a D!*$". I tried to tell him about the dust it would collect and he said he would build a box for it. I also told him it would be prone for overheating. I also am concerned that a rf remote setup will work good in this house because of the layout.

Any suggestions.
Thanks.

Find a closet or another room in the house that has conditioned air and an electrical outlet where you can run needed cabling. Run a hard wired IR repeater using existing cabling if you think UHF won't work.

Can you explain the IR repeater?

Thanks
