Possible reuse of Daewoo 608P
Jun 21^st, 2012 at 4:48pm

Because they no longer conform to current DVB transmission standards I was just about to consign three Daewoo 608P STBs to the bin when a thought occurred to me after reviewing all posts about this box. I had not realised that it had an RF output (has it?) but, if so, could it be used simply as a Freeview modulator for TVs without SCART? Or have I completely missed the picture?

Any observations will be appreciated.

It will not modulate a signal on the scart input AFAIK, but maybe it's worth a try.

The website you're at Tongue

says it has a modulator!

Pace-designed OnDigital STBs could, but then their products were usually superior to others.

My family's OnDigital STBs do exactly that when a signal is input into their "VCR Scart" socket, they're "ON" and the sending device sets Pin 8 high (which is the norm when Freeview STBs are "ON").

Why not try it now?
