 EASIER THAN YOU THINK!! PERFECT FOR DIRECTV December 27, 2009
Paul Lee (Seattle, WA USA)

WOW...
My purchase before this item was a logitech universal remote. I spent 10 hours and 2 calls to India to set up and I ended up not using the RF remote because it didn't work.
REASON FOR PURCHASE (APPLICATION):
I wanted to gift my mom the ability to watch her DirecTV in the kitchen on the new 23" Samsung I got her. We didn't want to go through the hassle of having another big DirecTV HD DVR box and more coaxial line run around the house, so I bought the Briteview.
INSTALL:
1. Plugged HDMI cable from Family room DTV receiver to back up base unit (kept the component video and audio plugged into cinema receiver for the main TV).
2. Plugged BV-2500 base unit into wall.
3. Placed Infared receiver over the DTV receiving IR port
4. 40ft away and through 1 wall I plugged receiving unit into back of Samsung 23" TV via HDMI
5. Plugged receiving unit into wall
6. Turned on both TV's and whaa-la
PRO's
* Not sure for all applications, but the DirecTV receiver was capable of sending component audio/video and HDMI aud/vid at the same time, so we could watch and adjust volume on both TV's at same time with ZERO LAG (both audio and video).
* SUPER EASY INSTALL WITH INFARED WORKING ON FIRST ATTEMPT
* HD picture quality is 1080P
* No extra running of cables for my application
* Small receiving unit makes for a clean looking install. Unit is smaller than most computer home routers.
CON's
* No HDMI out on the base unit (would make nice for lots of us who want to pass through the HDMI and don't have an AV receiver or want to change AV receiver input). Instead I have to use both HDMI and component out so.
UNKNOWN AND OTHER SUGGESTIONS
To complete the install I think I will probably need to buy an additional DireTV remote and program the 2nd TV's volume control to that.
Keep in mind your are going to be watching the SAME channel on the 2nd display if you are watching the primary display at the same time. That being said this isn't for most family's. My mom lives with just my dad and they enjoy watching the same thing.
Now my mom can cook family dinner and watch TV at the same time!!!
Keep in mind this was a gift from someone (me) who doesn't even own or watch TV.
FIRST REVIEW OF A PRODUCT ON AMAZON... WHATCHA THINK?
just what i was looking for July 9, 2009

I originally bought the Acoustics Research HDMI over poweerline solution which was terrible. finally broke down and picked up this brightview deal it's fantastic. I set it up yesterday in less than 5 minutes and it works perfectly. Includes IR blaster too! current setup is about 15 foot no line of sight behind a cabinet door hooked up to my cable box. this may be the best value out there if your looking to hide your equipment. haven't tested with a 1080p signal yet, so i can't comment on that but the 1080i signal is perfect so far.

I had a HDMI cable wired in the walls of our new house to connect a TV that is over the fireplace to the DVD, DVR stuff in a cabinet in back of great room. The cable quit working in less than 2 years - it would have meant taking out sheet rock, insulation, ceilings in lower levet etc to replace 60 foot HDMI cable! This product works fabulous - can not see any picture quality issues (we have a Sony Bravia 50 inch) and this setup costs less than just the old cable cost, and took minutes to install! Was told by the HDMI cable manufacture that HDMI cables can not hang which ours did in the wall for about 10 feet from TV to floor space between levels.
Love it!!! September 25, 2009

I bought this product is because I could hang up my TV on top of the fireplace in my living room, where there is no cable connection. The transmitter is in an adjacent room 20 ft away from the receiver. So far I am very pleased with the performance, even though there is no 1080p. For me, 1080i @60 hz is enough.
The setup was quite easy; the only problem was that in the beginning I was not able to get a wireless link between transmitter and receiver. But after following the instructions and changing the receiving channels, it was a very straight forward setup.
Great product, would definitely recommend it to anyone who would want to watch TV in places that you normally think wouldn't be accessible.
Installing the BV-2500 in a motorhome: the best solution November 25, 2009

This device transmits a high-def TV signal to a remote receiver. A lot of people have older TV sets in their RVs and installing a replacement HD set is more complicated than just finding a set that will fit in the old TV's compartment. Installing the cabling to new HD sets is a real challenge and needs to be done in order to get full benefit from a satellite receiver. If the existing standard co-axial cable is used, there is no benefit to getting an HD TV as the image will still be standard definition. Running multiple component, audio and HDMI cables is expensive and very difficult even if surface mounted. I could not find any easy, cosmetically acceptable cabling solution. The Brite View device greatly simplified this problem. The BV-2500 transmitter has 2 HDMI and 2 component video/audio inputs with easy switching using its remote control. Installation is super-easy. The receiver has a single HDMI output to the HD TV. The transmission range is up to 70 feet and the video quality excellent. The small receiver (smaller than a clock radio) is easy to move from the front TV to the back TV. Just plug it into the wall, plug in the HDMI cable and viola! In our 35 foot RV, the signal easily passes through multiple walls, the refrigerator, the washer and dryer and a slide-out with perfect reception. You will need a short HDMI cable (3-4 feet each) to each HD TV set. The BV-2500 comes with a 3 foot HDMI cable that can be used to connect to a satellite receiver (or other HD receiver) or Blue Ray DVD player. If you have other devices, like a non-Blue Ray DVD player, you will need component video and audio cables to connect them to the BV-2500. (I also found that I needed a video distribution amplifier ($50 @ RS) when I split the component signal between an older HD TV (it didn't have an HDMI input) and the BV-2500 but if you are not splitting any inputs, you won't need to worry about that.)
