How bizarre!?
Ahh..... looking @ the SCART wiring diagrams, I see that composite
& S-Video
Luminance travel down the same cable.
Sooo.... the TV _is_ jsut receiving a composite signal.
I changed the SKY box between RGB & Pal, which makes no difference
whatsoever that I can see.
Also, as per my comment replying to Keith, if the KAT5 box reproduces the
original signal faithfully then it should still work - even if composite is
being sent over svideo circuits because it works _without_ Kat5 being
present.....
Does anyone know if I can do any harm running Composite over Svideo
circuits? Mind you, it's been like that for about a year now, so I guess
the damage is done :-)
cheers,
Tony
