Vu duo scart problem?

When I use HDMI cable the picture is fine but when I switch to scart the image is too far stretched towards the left. It makes it difficult to read the writting on the menus due to most of it being cut off. I've tried AV settings, the problem is still there.

Is this a common problem with vu duo if using a scart?

I've tried settings in the TV and no joy. I changed to another skin, it sorted out the info bar and menu due to them being centered else they would have been cut off if they weren't centered. It's not that bad now however certain extended menus are cut off.

I hope they design a skin for SD TV's in case anyone wants to use a scart else theres no point in having a scart socket on the receiver.

I don't have any phono plugs therefore I haven't tested it but I guess I would get the same result I did with the scart socket.

Can explain a bit more about what you mean by hdmi out?

HDMI to your TV! Are you connecting it to a modern TV? You should have an HDMI connection on the back of your TV which you can connect the VU+ to!

I'm currently using it via the hdmi cable and the menus don't get cut off but when I plug in a scart socket it gets cut off.
Is hdmi connection the only way everything will be displayed properly on screen?

Seems to be....Is this for sending the signal to another TV?

No. My TV broke down recently and I had to replace it with a standard one until my HD set was fixed, this is when I noticed the problem.

When my HD set was repaired I tried connecting the duo to the TV via the scart socket and got the same result as the standard def TV.

hdmi is needed on a hdmi box as skins etc are designed around hdmi resolutions. You will always have probs if you go for scart out

It's pointless them having scarts on the receiver if you can't make proper use of them.
