TVDRIVE switching the outputs

hi
I output my tvdrive via 720p component to my plasma.

I also send the signal upstairs via a scart video sender attached to the TVdrive's 'TV scart' socket. This works fine so far but it is a pain going to the telewest menu each time to switch output from component to scart.

I'm sure I read in one of the forums a while back that there was a hack the allowed you to switch sources quickly using the tvdrive handset.

I cant find the post that refers to this- does anyone know how its done?

Thanks

The signal is always outputted from the VCR scart, even when outputting HD via HDMI / component - the only downer is that the VCR scart outputs composite and not RGB, but at least you don't have to mess about with the menu stuff.

Hope this helps!
