How do I connect 2 televisions to a PS3 for a charity singstarevent!
 
Thanks so much to everyone here. In the end I resolved the issue by
buying a scart distribution box from maplins. I wouldn't work at
first because I was using the playstation composite cable with a scart
adapter. But I got hold of a proper playstation to scart cable and it
works great.

If you're interested in the event:

and if you'd be so kind as to donate, it's for a really worthy cause -
the MS Society:

Thanks again.

Also, she needs the same solution with a PS2 as well as the PS3. *If

I see that you've already solved this but, fwiw, if one of the TVs has
two SCART sockets, feed the PS3 into SCART1, and then connect SCART2
to the second TV's SCART input and manually switch it to AV mode - you
should find that this works in most cases.

Unless the CIA have re-wired the SCART cable while you weren't looking of
course. :-)

Just because I'm the only person in the entire group who actually knew
how to do it.... :p
