Thats what I've already got. Ideally I'd like it setup by scart. Here's the setup WITHOUT the DVDR:

Cable point on wall > telewest pace cable box > scart lead > tv

If I am adding the DVDR to that it should become:

Cable point on wall > telewest pace cable box > scart lead > dvdr > scart lead > tv

The DVDR has two scarts, telewest box the same and the TV one. With the second setup above that would surely mean the signals and being brought into the cable box from the cable line, then being output to the dvdr's scart input. I have the DVDR set to scan the AV2 input which is the scart according to the manual. It should then scan for channels on the scart input (av2) and output the results via the scart output which goes to the tv.

I'm sure I've got it right and I've been assured by the DVDr company that it is compatible with cable boxes aswell as sky.
