A new widescreen TV - but which one?

Having got a new Toshiba 210 DVD (fantastic), I`m now looking for a widescreen TV to replace my square screened set - expensive game this!

I`m looking to spend a maximum of £800 (on-line prices) which seems to translate to around £1000 at rrp. I`m not concerned about the brand but do have a few key requirements:

- 32" screen size
- Flatscreen
- Audio outputs (amplifier connection)
- At least 2 scarts

Can anyone supply a list of the TV`s I should be looking at?

Philips 32PW6315 - A good buy?

I`ve seen a Philips 32" widescreen TV (32PW6315) with stand and rear speakers (it`s got built in Pro Logic) for £700.

Does anyone have experience of this model? Is it a good buy at this price?

RE: Use of Scart and phono leads - Help!

Thanks Mike

Just out of interest is this a feature of all DVD players or down to individual makes of machine?

Use of Scart and phono leads - Help!

I have connected my DVD player to my TV using the RGB scart socket. In addition I have also connected the DVD to my stereo amplifier using phono leads via the AUX input on the amp.
The above coonections are as per the instruction book supplied with the DVD player.
However, whenever the DVD is switched on (disc playing or not) the sound from the TV program selected prior to switching the DVD player on can be faintly heard through the loudspeakers.

Is the DVD player at fault or have I got my wires crossed?
