There are a couple of trick settings. "oh, look at that...." However. Have you heard of SCART sockets, sometimes called Euroconnectors? Basically a good idea; multiple pins on a single plug carrying audio, video and other things but they have two problems.

1). All pins have to be clean; does them good to be unpluged and put back in occasionally.

2). They don't lock. It would have been easy to do, just a springwire clip that goes over the back.

So she's got a new digibox. Nice clean SCART plug to probably dusty SCART socket. Not a complete cure but pretty good. Maybe a squirt of de-oxit would improve things even more. Does anyone know if there's an equivalent to de-oxit sold in the UK?

Thanks for all your help. I did think of trying to access the service settings but my experiences are not good. Bit like being in a maze; the more you try to find a way out the more damage you can do.
