Where can I buy a 2 way A/V switch?
 

Hi

I need a two way audio/visual switch (scart or composite + R/L audio) to
connect a freeview box and a VCR to a TV that has only one A/V (SCART)
input.

Does such a thing exist and does anyone know where I can buy one?

I'd prefer a manual rather than an auto switching one as an auto will be
forever switching back and forth when vcr and digibox are both on.

Thanks for any info

Ian.

Argos sell one that reputedly works with RGB etc. John Sims sells an
automagical one for £50 and it should be pretty good.

Maplin do several. Look under A/V Splitters & Switchers.

There might be a problem in that your Freeview box should be feeding RGB,
but your VCR will only be composite. So you might want the auto RGB
switching enabled.
