Greetings:
I am looking for information/advice/suggestions for a monitor system for a Community Theater building. Currently we have an old VHS recorder hooked though a Tube-TV/VCR television set that is then output to three other similar sets. One is 2 floors down from the tech booth. The other two are across the building in two separate dressing rooms. There are cable wires running to each other the TV sets and they are pulled through the ceiling/floors/walls to each area. Our problems now are that 1) the sound has gone out on the system-possibly due to the age of the VHS recorder (mic going out), 2) Some of the cables to one area have been cut and will need to be spliced to be connected to the downstairs area again, and 3) the picture is not always reliable (sometimes red, sometimes clear, sometimes scrolling). The last can be adjusted but we have donor who wants to help upgrade the system. We do not have a large budget as a non-profit organization and a big chunk of the funding we do receive will be going towards new dimmers as we had some water damage this last fall. We rent the building from a historical board so we cannot make permanent changes or will need board approval for major undertakings.
I believe that is all the information I can provide.
Thank you in advance-
