You might have heard people talking about how Sky Magic Eye has revolutionised their viewing lives, but what exactly is it? A ‘Magic Eye’ is a little device which allows you to watch Sky television on a second TV set in your home. The important thing to realise is that a Magic Eye is not the equivalent of Sky Multiroom, which costs an extra £10 a month. Instead, this system allows you to watch one set of programmes on two televisions.
So who can benefit from this? Well, the most common usage is for people who live alone. Having a Magic Eye system means you can switch off in the lounge and continue watching your Sky TV in bed. Equally, this will be the case for parents with small children, who will be in bed in the evenings anyway. Basically, the Magic Eye is attached to an adapter which will connect your Sky box to your second TV set. Instructions on how to set up your system can be easily found on the Internet and, once set up, it will work just the same as your primary TV set and box.
You can choose to operate your Magic Eye using your existing Sky remote, or by buying an additional remote control from sites like BuyMe.co.uk. All their remotes are the genuine article and so you will have no problems getting them to work with your new set up – and it will save you just getting to the top of the stairs and realising you’ve left the remote in the lounge. Likewise, no more hunting around down the back of the sofa for the remote, while all the while it’s sat on your bedside table! BuyMe.co.uk have bundles available where you can purchase your Sky remote together with the Magic Eye.
