Having just bought a Freeview Digibox I've run into a slight problem which is worth mentioning here in case it helps anyone with similar problems with video signals. Answers off list if you think it's too far unconnected to QL matters. The Freeview digital TV decoder only has a SCART output (no UHF/RF aeriel output). Although my video and TV have SCART sockets, it turns out that the one on the video is output only, so I can't record from the Freeview system nor view it via the TV tuner, bit of a pity given the shifts I work. (The video can ONLY record from UHF aerial socket, it has no composite video input either, cheap Tesco �70 video!) The obvious answer to all this is would be some form of RGB to UHF modulator to connect SCART socket video output to a standard aerial socket for a UHF TV. Does anyone know if such devices are available? If they are, they'd be ideal for connecting computer RGB outputs to TV sets, for example. -- Dilwyn Jones had similar problems ( so I thought ) fitting vcr and sky box to new tele over Christmas , turned out to be one of the scart leads was dodgy. ended up working the way I had it originally digibox to vcr input, vcr output to tele no problems since All the best - Bill
