Hi

I have the following connections for my 890:
- coax lead to the AV amp. for audio decoding etc
- SCART to the TV for watching DVDs
- RF out to the TV for standard tv viewing

This gives the best picture for the source you are using. What is using the SCART at the moment? If it is your VHS, can you not connect the SCART out from it to the SCART in on the DVD - then the TV SCART is free.

You can also get SCART adapters which allow you to plug 2 or more SCART leads into a box which then feeds into the 1 TV SCART socket. The other alternative is to get a TV with lot of sockets! Saying that, I have 3 but need 4!

Hope that helped.
