ok, had a bit of success.

took out s video andput in yellow plug, got audio, but a disturbed picture, changed back and got black and white but this time with audio.

The channel changer only sends 2 numbers, even though i have set the prefernce to send it as 005, it only displays 05 on screen, and can't change channel.

Any ideas appreciated
thanks

haven't used PAL/NTSC converter as other people on here have had sucess without it. Do you think i need it?

good question, but there are a few guys on here who have managed to get a us slingbox to work in the uk, but they didn't mention if they had a pal/ntsc convertor

I tried this (yellow into scart) and had no picture and a buzzing sound.

With output from scart socket (using a scart to composite adaptor) i have s-video plugged in with red and white directly into audio out sockets on sky box and have a good black and white picture, good audio, but am missing the bottom 10% of the screen.

I fitted a PAL to NTSC convertor but it had no effect so i removed it.

So currently I have everything except colour, any more ideas on getting a colour picture??

I have a normal SKY box not a SKY+ one (its a PACE brand)
