    I am in a bit of pickle, I have a scart cable where one end is a scart connecter and the other end is 3 separate cables being red,white,yellow. Now I plug the scart end into the digibox and the coloured cables into my tv. The problem is the tv doesnt pick up the sky +.

    Anyone got any advice.

    Have U selected the right AV input channel? Usually AV3 or AVFront for RCA Phono connections? I assume its an output scart and input RCA lead and not the other way around, I.e the RCA connectors go in the back of the SKY box? There wasn't a scart adapter like the ones that comes with playstations/xbox in the box to convert the RCA into scart?

    yellow is the video lead and the red/white is the audio

    Some of those Scart-to-phono cables have a switch too for choosing between Input and Output.

    Why aren't you using a Scart to Scart cable, to benefit from RGB signals?

    Maybe some wierd HD TV with Component in rather than Composite and no SCART? (Though that ought to give B&W if the yellow lead is connected). It may be a RCA plug TO SCART lead, which won't give anything, but usually those have 6 RCA (phono style) plugs.
