Bush 6690D Connectivity

I have a Bush 6690D integrated digital TV that's connected to a Bush
model 807 VCR and I've been using OnDigital / Freeview quite happily
for a couple of years. I'm thinking of buying a cheap(ish) DVD player
this Christmas but I'm not sure of the connectivity issues I need to
address.

Your problem is simplified by the fact that the Bush 6690D doesn't
have RGB enabled on its SCART, so there's no pressing reason to
connect your DVD player there.

An update ...

I just took delivery of a Toshibs SD330e DVD player, connected its
single scart socket up to the tv's single scart socket, and set the
Toshiba's video out option to RGB. The tv's tv standard was already
set to RGB (when the other device was the vcr), and everything appears
to be working OK. Unless I'm missing something, it looks like RGB is
actually enabled on the tv's scart.

Now I need to buy a scart switch.
Regards, Steve

The scart is composite video
RGB is only available on the internal scart (connected to the On
Digital box)
Although you enabled RGB, composite video is still produced from your
DVD player.

OK, thanks for clearing that up Colin.
