Being a gaming writer, I have no less than 3 consoles, a DVD player, a DVD recorder and a Sky box connected to my TV. I'm not going to faff around plugging and unplugging stuff when I want to play so I use a SCART switching box.
The problem is, games consoles don;t send a signal on Pin 8 on the SCART plug to signal a switch, so the only solution is to have a manual switch box... until now, that is.
This is the Bluedelta Smart-SCART Plus, a unit which claims to do all the switching between SCART, RGB and even S-Video devices.
It's 5.1 compatible, powers itself down when no signals are detected and even allows you to use it as a pass-through loop to record from one device to another AND still watch the output of a third device... automatically!
It's literally just arrived this morning, so I'm about to venture into the mess of spaghetti behind my TV and hook it up... wish me luck, I'm sure I've lost at one child behind there since the last expedition!
