Thanks for the welcome.
I have to agree with you on that one. Wiring it directly through the scart switcher was the first config I tried, but I then tried feeding it via coax to the VCR and tuning that to the output signal with the same result.
I also tried wiring it using the conversion cable from the phono outputs into the scart socket on the VCR and selecting the input on the VCR - with the same result.
I just can't understand why it works using the convertor to convertor (phono to scart - scart to phono) but as soon as anything else gets involved it seems to fail.
Maybe I should try hooking it to the VCR then wiring the scart from the VCR directly in to the final scart to phono convertor rather than through the 4 into 1 switcher and see if that works.
