Connection of Playstation to Digital TV

My daughter has just bought herself a Digital TV (wharfedale) and Ihave been trying to connect it up for her. It is complex because shehas a conventional video recorder (VHS tape), a DVD player and a SonyPlaystation. It is further complicated by the TV only having one SCARTsocket.
What I have so far is
Aerial lead into video and then out to TV.
Scart lead from DVD player to TV
I tried scart from DVD to video and then video to TV, but it seemedconfused with this & DVD seems to be only one it plays.
Itried to connect the playstation via a special switch into the aeriallead, but the TV doesn't seem to tune to it. THe TV also works onfrequency, not channels, so I have no idea what frequency to tune itto.
The TV also has S-Video, VGA, HDMI and YPbPr inputs and I wondered if one of these might work with the Playsation.
Sorry for complicated question & I hope someone has some suggestions. Many thanks in advance

I would suggest using antenna(aerial connector) into vcr and out to tv. This will allow you to watch vcr on ch. 3 or 4. Then hookup dvd or game system to component input which is ypbpr . However my personal opinion is that regular audio/video cables purchased at a hardware store for 10 bucks will work about as well as a 100 dollar set of gaming cables. Then use the remaining s-video input for whatever is left. Making sure to use a set of a/v cables for sound along with it. After all is in place, simply change tv input to the source you'd like to use. Hope this helps, Russmann.

Hello,

for PS2 /3 please use the YPbPr inputs. Here is the link for the cable: http://www.sourcingmap.com/4in1-component-ypbpr-video-cable-for-ps23-wii-xbox360-p-10240.html

My connection is bad when playing online on my playstation 3 when my mom is using her laptop and i thought dual band was supposed to put me on a different band for a smooth sailing connection!?

maybe for any online multplayer games I recommend just using an Ethernet cable if possible, let your mom have wireless all to herself on the laptop, any wireless for online multiplayer games just sucks

Ihave sound on my wharfdale tv but no pictore

Check you video cable if it is well connected if it is then interchange the cables using the one for the audio for the video and other one for the video to connect the audio . If there is no sound then the video cable is bad and need changing but if it produces sound then you will need to visit a local repair man

I have had this problem once before and it was because my sound output was was set to the (yellow white red) and so what you have to do is go to Sound Settings then go to Audio Output Settings then what your going to choose is HDMI then it will ask for what method and just select Automatic, then you should be able to here sound threw your tv.

Black/Green Distortion - Picture Quality - Wharfedale

This is no solution but a point in a probable direction.

A tech guy told me ALL the LCDs they have seen in their repair shop have "swollen" capacitors, this is due to voltage instability. Lowering the internal voltage regulator and replacing the swollen capacitors (which eliminate noise) apparently restores the LCD to new working quality. Without actually "seeing" my problem the tech said that should repair it. I have not tried this yet but eventually will begin that way.
