HiDeffjeff...you may want to consider a DVI splitter to send a signal to your bedroom. Since you already have the HD-TiVo in your living room, with this splitter you can do what I did...buy a dvi splitter and send your DVD/SAT signal to your bedroom...then you can enjoy your recorded TiVo movies in HD in your bedroom without buying another TiVo HD receiver...(or any receiver for that matter)...unless you absolutely need to watch 2 different stations at the same time...With my scenereo it works out good because My wife and I spend time in the family room when we come home from work and then later when it's time for bed we simply switch over to the bedroom and watch TiVo in there...Here is the one I have...it can be found at www.ecost.com for around $245.00...(beats the price of another HD-TiVo!)...

Easy...I have 2 optical inputs (one of which the TiVo is plugged in) and two optical "outputs" on my family rooms Pioneer Elite surround receiver, so I just ran another digital optical wire from one of the optical outs on the back of the receiver to the "optical in" on my bedrooms surround sound receiver...(piece of cake)...They also have optical and coaxial digital switchers you can buy...
