-Pior DVD A565 1 Scart (RGB), 1 Aux Scart (Composite Video)
-Sat Nokia 9800 1 TV Scart (RGB), 1 Aux Scart (RGB), 1 Digital Audio Socket, RF In/out
-JVC VCR 1 Scart (AV1 In/Out) , 1 Scart (AV2 In), RF In/RF Out

I have two Thor Scarts and 2 Coax cables

I was going to do the following :

DVD - > TV RGB THOR SCART
DVD - > AV Digital Coax

SAT - > TV RGB THOR SCART
SAT - > AV Digital Coax

VCR - > TV SCART
Cable TV Rf In/RF Out

But with this setup I wont be able to use the A/V receiver with the VCR

Any alternatives ? Can I connect my VCR to the Scart on the A565 via a normal scart leag ? Will this allow me to use the AV receiver ?

You will need a second scart from the Digibox to the VCR so that it can record from satellite. Don't bother with a particularly expensive one as iy will only be a composite signal. The VCR should have audio outputs which can be taken to a pair of inputs on the amp to replay tapes through the system.

Hi IanJ ...10x for your quick reply...appreciated

The VCR has 4 Phono jacks ( 2 In / 2 Out)

So the final setup should be :

DVD - > TV RGB THOR SCART
DVD - > AV Digital Coax

SAT - > TV RGB THOR SCART
SAT - > VCR Normal SCART
SAT - > AV Digital Coax

VCR - > TV SCART
VCR - > AV pair phono leads
Cable TV Rf In/RF Out

OK i need some additional help. Here is a pic of a part of the setup. I leave out the DVD to TV and the VCR to TV connection since these are quite simple scart to scart connection.

I have another TV in another room. I would like to supply this TV with CABLE and SAT via RF socket on SAT. It seems that I will need to split the RF cable at some point. Any ideas ?
