Question Telewest Tv-drive Question

Can anyone tell me what kind of output comes from the VCR scart on the TV-DRIVE. Is it RGB or COMPOSITE ?

I have read somewhere that it is composite. However, when I watch the scart output, back through my HHD recorder onto the TV, the picture is very choppy and jerky (technical terms), also in full widescreen, i.e. black band top and bottom. I have however, recorded Sin City and that was as clear as a bell and fullscreen (no black bands).

I'm pretty sure it can output both RGB and composite ... you can change what the TV Drive outputs by going into the Audio and video Settings menu.

If you don't have a box, PM me and I'll check tonight.

How did you manage to record SIN CITY ?
I was under the impression that you could not record PAY MOVIES .
