    OK I just got Sky Digital and the installer set it up with my TV but I don't think it's working right. I have to turn off my Digital box to watch RTE etc because Sky is appearing on every channel. To complicate matters I still have my chorus box because the subscription doesn't run out for a while.

    Now I was thinking would it be possible to have the Chorus box tuned to No.5 on my TV. Sky digi on AV. and the terrestrial channels on 1-4?

    BTW At the moment I have the Digital Box connected to the TV and video via SCART cables.

    Hi, press the tv button on the sky remote and see if that helps, if not go into the picture settings menu and turn scart control off.

    Hi Dave,

    Follow these steps and you should sort out your problem. Select Services on the Sky Remote. Choose Picture settings. One of the options is Scart control. I expect that this is set to on. Set it to off and save the new settings. This should allow you to press TV on the Sky remote and select one to five in order to view the terrestrial channels (extra-terrestrial in the case of Chorus).

    Unfortunately this method turns off the RGB output. The composite PAL is not quite as crisp (but is still very good). It's just a limitation on some older TVs that you'll have to live with.
