Answer 2

Just run the dvd and the sky box through the video. I do that and there's only one scart lead sticking out of My telly.

Answer 3

It all depends on how many SCART inputs your TV has.

TVs have SCART inputs only. Sky, NTL, DVDs have SCART output only.

A VCR has an input *and* output usually.

You might need some multi-way SCART switches to get it exactly how you like. But then you might decide you never need to record from Sky or NTL or whatever...

Answer 4

Aha!! I had this very problem. It is something to do with one of the tiny wires inside the scart that sends a signal to tell the vcr/tv/whatever that that output has been selected. What you have to do (i did this with much success) is open the scart lead and snip one of the wires. I think its no.8 but don't quote me on that. Best stick it into google.
