Hi

I recently purchased a philips video sender from argos and was wondering what is the sound quality like because I seem to be experiencing a slight buzzing sound from mine.

at first i fought it may have something to do with the antenna so I tried moving it around, same problem

help is appriciated.

I have 2 video senders, one going to the kitchen (Medion), and one going to the bedroom (Thomson). There's a buzzing on the kitchen one but it's only really noticable during very quiet scenes. It also varies depending on which channel I use on the sender.

I have a Philips VL1200 with two receivers, and neither has any obvious buzzing.

I have a medion one. No buzzing, but loads of hissing if the aerials are not correctly aligned.

I have no problems with my Digisender. Wi-Fi router interfered at first, but moved it about 6 inches & all ok without any loss of coverage.

Only other time there's a problem is when I use the microwave!

I have a Medion and there is an intermittent buzz. It is very sensitive and needs positioning to be spot on.

I wish I could find a digital video sender. I need a better quality signal upstairs from the tivo to the tv.

Any pointers?

In terms of signal quality, not all video senders are the same. I used to have an old Response system, and the picture on that was very poor. In comparison, I find the signal quality on my current Philips VL1200 to be excellent. It seems to rely on a very strong signal, rather than directional aerials, since the video aerials are internal and omnidirectional.

I'm gonna exchange my philips video sender for different make and see how that one turns out

I have a couple of AEI DigiSenders and apart for the one in the kitchen buzzing when the microwave is on, have no problems.
