Hi

I'm a complete novice so please forgive me if this is an obvious question. I have an old analog tv which is connected to a Grundig freeview box. The tv has one scart socket and no hdmi sockets. I wanted to connect a wii fit to the tv but didn't want to disconnect the freeview box (as it it loses its signal when I do this ) so bought a Logik 5 in 1 multi scart adaptor.

When I switch on the wii box the wii image comes up on the tv screen BUT the sound I get is the sound of what ever tv programme is on and not the sound from the wii box.

Having read this site I see people have recommended scart splitter with selector knobs for people who are having problems with scart adaptors. I don't know what this is or what the knobs do. Is this what I need?

Are some makes of adaptors better than others? If this is not the answer could someone please suggest an answer. I am on a pension - so nothing too expensive please.

Many thanks for any advice

Is this what you're talking about? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCART

I have never heard of the word "scart" before...

The Wii comes with composite cables, and you can use the optional component cables. Other than those two options, I don't know of any other way to connect it to a TV.

Many many thanks for replying. The problem has just been solved by my local tv shop. In the Uk you can connect a Wii to a tv via a scart lead if your tv is old and has no other means of doing so. The Wii actually comes with a scart lead

My problem was that when using the Scart adaptor lead the signal from the digital box was interfering with the signal from the Wii.

All I had to do was put the digital box on standy and the problem is solved.

Nice to know there are people out there willing to help.
