Default Sky scart control

I have been trying to resolve a problem with my new HDTV - when plugging the
sky box directly into TV and having RGB set in the digibox settings I was
getting a green screen.
I just bought a new cheap cable to make sure it wasn't the cable and it was
still green.

In the sky digibox settings, I just turned "scart control" to the off
position and the green went away, giving me a normal RGB picture.

My TV downstairs also does RGB but works fine with "scart control" switched
on.

Does anyone know what this scart control does please? Why is it there? do I
need it? and why do I get differing results?

The scart control automatically switches the tv to the av channel when you
turn the skybox on

Thanks. I wonder why this is affecting my RGB.
I called PC World tech support and they are coming out Monday to look at the
TV, they reckon it might be a fault with the RGB connection.
