    Yes - you have to enable it in the Scart menu though. Ti= vo does NOT
output S-Video on the Scart so the only other alternative is composite
(don't do this you really won't like it), or as suggested an RGB to S-Video=
converter.

    To connect two sources directly to the plasma one must b= e RGB or
Component and one must be S-Video and the RGB synch must not be composite,<= BR> component does not have this issue and is first choice for quality.
Otherwise you need some switcher or to daisy chain them via Scart perhaps o= r
an AV amp that does switching - or the KAT5 switcher !

    Some Sky / Digital terrestrial boxes output S-Video and = some don't - I
think nearly all output RGB [& composite synch :-(]. Scart to RGB leads= are
difficult to find and quite expensive =A370 - Currys/Dixons/Comet do not st= ock
them.

Desirability Order

Component

*RGB + H + V synch     (5 cables)
*RGB +synch on green     (3 cables) - poss. best for KA= T5 as lower cost - 3
channels - but you have to have a synch on green source
*RGB + composite synch     (4 cables)

S-Video

Composite

    * RGB all the same quality really but last option limits= connectivity
options

  So does Tivo output RGB over a scart lead? (Still not out of the box= .)

  Many thanks

  Tivo doesn't output svideo.  You could always get an RGB to S c= onverter
  though for about 60 notes.....
