I have Freesat (via Sky) with a VHS recorder, and want to purchase a digital recorder with Freeview. I want to connect it up so that I can have either Freeview (which works when Freesat is rained off) or Freesat (which gives more on the red button at times). I have both a standard aerial and a satellite dish connection. I am looking at a Humax recorder which has 2 scart connections. Can I make this work and if so how. JB38 Thanks for your question. I am looking at the Humax PVR-9300T. I have a Panasonic TX-24DX1 TV. It has 2 SCART connectors. I think I can run the Freeview Box into one and the Sky box into the other. Then depending which I switch on I can watch Sky or Freeview. However the Humax box only appears to have output SCART connections so I cannot record Sky, but I don't think that will be a problem. Am I right? jb38 Thanks for that. You did not mention the Sky connection but from your answer I assume that the TV will cope with either input. jb38 Thank you very much you have confirmed my understanding of the system Your advice is much appreciated, my local TV shops did not really know the answers
