V6 Box Scart connection

Higuys
On our wavelength

Hi there I was thinking of leaving Virgin because the Tivo box was too slow, I have now discovered the V6 box and it is supposed to be faster?. with my current Tivo box I use the scart output to transmit to all my other TV's via an RF converter, I have seen photos of the V6 box and it shows a round Scart out socket. 

My question is :- Is this a scart socket and if so is there an adaptor to convert it to a standard scart.

I rather suspect that no contact centre agent or engineer knows or cares about this.

Tuning in
Hi all,I just had my vm tv installed today and I try to use your method to connect my v6 to the other tv using coax but it didn’t work , I just revive no single on the other tv , I connected my v6 into the hdmi splitter .The input light is on and I have no problem with the one connected using hdmi, an the other one I connected into the Neoteck Aluminum 4K HDMI to SCART Converter , then scart to Electromart Rf Modulator Convert Scart Or Phono To Aerial Rf Coax.
I put my coax cable into the back of the RF Modulator where it said tv/vcr . Is that correct? Or do I need the scart to coax converter? I never use that before because I don’t need that with my old sky box . Here is the RF Modulator I bought.

Can anyone please help, thank you

Scart to coaxed wire
Set pins all to zero (channel 21)
Then you will have to tune in your old TVs

Please see pages 11 and 12 of this Thread for the links [items] you will need. Make sure they all have metal cases and power! {this is an interesting thread} 👍 Thumbs up if I have helped. [V6 Happy Camper]

Hi, I would check your scart lead. Not all leads are for both input and output, some do not have all the pins connected. some are for input only!

Can you check that you are getting an output from the SCART lead, have you a tv you can plug the SCART straight into (eleminating the rf part)?

Yes I agree
Not all of the same
But I do know that the link I provided on page 11 is the correct Scart to RF modulator
With 8 dip switches that you set 6dip switches zero
It is metal en-cast and run via USB power
Like I've said previously in the past .......check out the links on page 11 and 12

Thank you , I am not sure if it’s the problem , I use to used that to connect my old sky box to the main tv , because I don’t want to install a new long wire to the other room so I want to use this method. Here is my scart. Thank you so much
