Page 1 of stereo sound problem

I have a sharp widescreen nicam tv plus a jvc nicam video.
I have just bought a pioneer 535 and have set it up from dvd to vid on av1 and vid to tv all via scart leads.
I select channel 6 on my tv for the video channel and dvd channel but only get mono sound.
I get stereo sound on normal tv channels but only mono on channel 6.
What am i doing wrong?
Is it becouse i am using cheap scart leads?
I will be buying a gold one £20 at the weekend.
Tried adjusting to stereo sound on channel 6 using tv set up options but it wont let me choose stereo.
Any one know how to solve my problem?
Cheers,

You`ll have to select your AV1 channel. This will allow you to get stereo.

As it stands, channel 6 is through your aerial cable passthrough, so it`ll only be mono. It shouldn`t matter about the cable, although a gold one will be a good investment anyway.

Put it onto AV1, you`ll get stereo and also a better picture on your video.

Thanks very much for that bigfan.
