I think it actually does that. The color gun controls were 'greyed out' when I selected the scart input
yes. Its a dvd player with vhs recorder as well.
ANYWAY very interesting tonight. Got pretty good quality on BBC4, then switched to BBC1 for 10 o clock news and it was beyond belief bad! really overcompressed. swapped between tv ONLY anlaogue and full digirtal, and teh digital was dreadful.
So it seems what I am seeing is very much a function of what is being transmitted on digital at the time. I guess they drop the bitrate for news.
I got slightly better channle 5 on digital than analogue this time. Weird.
