You then have to set it to standby again to watch the vided/DVD/game/whatever.
I hope I've explained that well enough!

Yup that's what happenes with cr3 around here. also work on my 2 at home, the vcr and dvd only take over when the digi is on standby, or dvd for some reason take control. then switch digi box back on it kicks of the vcr scart and has the main tv digibox veiwing..
Same works with xbox and ps2. etc etc.. this even works if you have a scart multi-tap thingie... aslong as it's plugged into the digi in the vcr scart socket it see's a signal.
or if you have a second scart input like most new tv's just use that for your dedicated games input, put dvd and vcr via the digi
