Hi All,

Im running the fully loaded OpenPLi image still (I know so old hat with the release of VIX). I want to have the VCR scart connected to my video sender all the time so that I can watch stuff upstairs but if I do that, everytime I power on the box it defaults to the VCR scart and not HDMI which is annoying. It is also a pain to keep putting it in as it is in a really hard to reach place in my av shelf. Does anyone know a way to disable the VCR scart and enable it just when you want it?

the easiest way is to open one end of the scart connector and cut the wire that goes to pin 8, this should stop the autoswitching.
