hi people,

just a quick Q.

i want my TV to automatically change to my DVD input channel (AV1/RGB scart) but it doesnt do it. it works for my sky digi box so i think its possible. is there anyway of doing this? i'm trying to create a macro for my DVD ect and it would be easierif i could get my TV to switch automatically

thanks, andy

Are you using a fully wired SCART or just an RGB?

Uhm strange as i use the QED RGB only squart and it changes channels automatically.


try swapping the sqaurts over going into the tv and see what happens. If it reverses teh situation then its your tv.

Must confess, I've never used dedicated RGB (whatever) SCARTS, only fully wired. Found them a lot less hassle. I also prefer the flat rear entry type.

Reminds me of a Bette Midler ditty:

"My friend Sophie was in the woods with her boyfriend Ernie.
"Ernie said, "Soph, you've got no tits and a tight box!"
"Sophie said, "Ernie, get off my back!"

Flexilbity and the fact that if one uses a SCART switch box, such as a Quintro, you'll find it almost imossible to fit angled entry types side by side; the sockets being too close together.

Ive just got the ditty but then this joke explains things :-)


They say an Englishman laughs three times at a joke. The first time when everybody gets it, the second a week later when he thinks he gets it, the third time a month later when somebody explains it to him.


see you next month LOL
