    Help how to connect tv/dvd/sky box?

    hi all

    just got me some new equipment and am hoping someone will be able to help em connect it up properly

    tv 32inch lcd

    inputs av scart/av1/av2/s video/component/analog rgb/dtv ypbpr

    jvc ths55 dvd player

    and panasonic sky digi box

    i want basically to get the best picture on the tv and also sound from the tv and sky box into the dvd player

    so i need advice on what cables to buy and where to connect

    also the manual states picture in picture selection under pc/dtv input status - does this mean i can get two channels on screen? if so how do i connect this up?

    thanks for your help guys

    cant wait to get it hooked up properly

    cheers

    dont buy the cables go to maplin and buy all the connectors, wire and a crimper and then download episode 3 of systm from systm.org its about 500mb (depending on format) its 45mins long that teaches you how to make your own cables then you dont have to spend a fortune

    thanks for the reply mate at least someone answers my pleas for help

    too late though

    bought a component lead yesterday to connect my tv to dvd

    hooked it up and chose component av channel but it said no signal

    any ideas??

    not sure if the cable is shit (jvc) or tv/dvd is shit

    either way the scart is working!

    cheers

    id make sure that the componant channel you selected was the right one cos if youve got 2 scart and 1 componant then there will be 3 av channels and you just need the right one, also make sure that its activated cos ive got a sanyo that needs it switching on in the settings for some reason (ive never had to do that with anyothers)

    id still have a look at systm though probably episode 2 with the mythtv box they made
