Scart switcher

[Ian Oliver <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I need to find a good SCART switcher to stick in my "node 0"

I have three sources, mostly RGB.
I have one TV wired via SCART cable.
I have other TVs using coax (yes, I know it sucks) but will add SCART
next time all the floors are up. (Cheaper than kat5 units!)

Currently, I use a three way auto-switcher to drive two of the sources
into the input of our Humax 9200T PVR and use its input control to
select between PVR and "other". SCART pin-8 switching helps here.
We
then use the PVR's SCART out for one TV and it's modulator to drive the
others. This works OK but everyone must watch the same source (or local
Freeview)

So, I'm toying with a SCART switch that has remote control, such as the
Triton BT903.
http://www.tvcables.co.uk/cgi-bin/tvcables/BT903-Triton.html

Details of how this works are sketchy, but I think I could put my three
sources into the inputs, my main TV on the output, and then a UHF
modulator on the "record" output. I think the BT903 then allows
you to
select an output and a "record" source independently. However,
whether
sending commands to it from multiple locations would be complicated
would require me to read the manual and/or take a look at the remote.

Anyone got one?

Alternative suggestions very welcome. A SCART matrix switcher would be
nice, but I guess they are pricy even if they exist.
