RE: Sky''s the limit :-(

[Robert Chasmer]

I think most sky boxes have two scart sockets, one with RGB, the just
composite (may be wrong). If you want S-Video, instead of RGB you need a
Sky+ box at the moment.

I have one sky socket connected to my TV's RGB socket via a fully wired
scart lead. The other Sky socket is connected to my Video via a longer
fully wired lead.

In the sky setup RGB is turned on, which does give me a nice clean RGB
picure via my TV. The video is recieving composite instead.

Good luck


Rob
