    Ok so before i get lots of abuse we have a really nice old Bang and Olufsen TV but it only has one scart socket. Our old sky box had a scart in and a scart out so we could route the DVD player through it but the new sky HD box only has one scart out. I am sick of having to grovel around the back of the telly swapping scart leads. I need a scart switch, are the really cheap mechanical switches bad, do they actually afect the picture and sound to a noticable amount if so what other options are their.

    For a tenner, I doubt it.

    I’ve got a three way switcher you can have for a fiver posted if you like? I only need one Scart on my kit and my telly has two sockets anyway. It might even be a 4 way, I’ll have to dig it out.

    I’ve had a couple of mechanical switches. Both ended up in the bin for either not being fully RGB-wired or just degrading the picture unacceptably.

    Is there not even an S-video / phono audio input on the TV that you could use? Flap on the front maybe? (The Sky HD box has outputs for this).

    I had one when I needed more SCART inputs than I actually had; it worked ok but was a manual push-button thing

    If I still had it you could have it for nowt, but I’m afraid it’s long gone.
