Proppinupthebar - many thanks, I will wait for your testing and reply.
Alanmelon - so it should work, then?
For the record, I have tried the AV2 input on the E55 with both RGB and Video (and S-video in desperation!).
With each of the above, I have tried setting as both decoder and normal, and the Ext Link setting as both 1 and 2.
If yours works, then I am even more confident that I have a duff STB.
Thanks again to all for your time and valuable input
