RGB problems and CR3
 

Hi, sorry if this has been covered already somewhere.

On the new CR3 when I select RGB in settings and when the digital box is switched off it overides the normal analogue stations with a blank screen. Strangely enough you can still get teletext on the analogue channels but no picture?

Also I have only 1 scart for RGB on my TV and I want to plug the NTL box and a DVD into it. Anyone know of a decent switch box which will do this for me? I have tried one which looses the ability to automatically overide the TV when you switch on the cable box. Anyone know of a good make of scart switch that works well with RGB?

Another part of my problem is that my widescreen TV has to do full screen with an RGB input, even if it should be just 4:3. Is there anyway to get the cable box to add black bars left and right of the screen?

Tod get the trilogy 2 scart switcher I have one and its great. It costs about £70 from Maplins.

...or an awful lot cheaper from CPC ;)

They also have many other switches but not all support RGB.

Thank you. Does this scart switch need to be plugged into the mains?

Yes, it has a 9VDC adaptor. More details here:

Would one of these devices allow someone to run a PS2 scart feed into the TV and into the DVD 5.1 system, taking into account that a freeview digibox and VCR are already connected to the existing setup?
