My tv in my living room is mounted over my fireplace. That really is the only place for it to go naturally in my living room. Here is the rub. The only outlets built in behind it are a power outlet and a coax port. I have no way to hook up a hdmi device other than my roku.

My question is, is there technology out there that would allow me to put a blu ray player on my bookcase on the other side of the room, and somehow wirelessly send it to a receiver in my tv's hdmi port?

IO Gear makes wireless HDMI kits. If you have coax there you could also use a HDMI balun.

You can run hdmi cable and have it share then coax faceplate. Link below is a dual hdmi cable and coax faceplate. There are also single hdmi and coax faceplates too, but if you go that route I'd run the double hdmi to cover future needs.

I would love to do that (run hdmi cable with my coax) but i dont think my attic situation is conducive to that solution. Im sure it cooouuuld be done but it is going to be a ton of trouble to do that. Thats why im looking for a different route.

Check out these products from Monoprice.com.

I can't vouch for these because my solution is several years old, but also purchased from them and work great. These ones are newer technology. I've bought from Monoprice for years now and they have exceptional customer service.
