I am sorry if this has already been answered - reading the above I think I know the answer - but here is the question.

I currently have CRT TV connected to my V+ via a scart. The scart on the back of V+ has an adaptor that has hardwired video and audio output and a scart pass through (I was experiencing picture distortion due to my wireless router). I do still use my sender to reansmit the remote signal but obviously not the video or audio signal.

On Wednesday of next week we are having a new HD TV delivered and obviously I will want the picture in the lounge to be from the HDMI output from the V+ but I will still want the signal routed upstairs via the scart as described above.

From what I have read above I assume I will need to use the Video scart connector, but by doing so will lose the menus. Or can I carry on using the main scart - if I do I assume I will need to change the video settings from HD to composite before going upstairs - but will keep menu capability. Will I need to physicaly disconnect the HDMI or just change the settings?

Sorry if this is a bit garbled but I would like to get this sorted (Just to throw a spanner in the works I had actualy intended to connect my DVD recorder to the video scart - I guess a dvd splitter might be needed.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Cheers

John
