Re: IR/RS232 controlled scart switcher?

["Steve" <steve@xxxxxxx>]

I will probably get both of the below switches as both are in my price
range, this is becuase I want to control two individual output
simultaneously, and I I will be able two control them seperately via the
same IR transmitter.

Thanks for both of yours help.

This Should do as a replacement for some sort of KAT5 switcher, as I will
switch them at node 0 before it goes down the kat5.

I bought something similar from Maplin on Sunday.  Nice piece of kit.  It
takes 4 inputs of stereo composite audio and either S-video or composite
video.  It also has two SCART inputs.  The output is in the form of stereo
composite audio and either composite video or S-video depending on the
input.  It was £40 and has an IR remote.  I'll find a link ....
