1x HDMI to Component YPbPr Converter

1 x Panasonic EUR646529 Plasma Remote Control

1 x Component lead

1 x HDMI Lead

Unplug system components (screen, sky box etc.)

Install Component Plasma Board into Slot 2 on your screen

Connect Component lead to converter and Plasma.

Connect HDMI from your sky box etc to the converter.

Switch on your system.

Select Sky in the usual way using Beo 4, (remember to leave your scart connected for sound)

Go into picture settings on the Sky HD Box and set the HD resolution to 1080i.

Select Sky HD Channel.

Now hold the Panasonic remote under the bottom left hand corner of the screen and press the input button.

HD Should be displayed, (might be dark at first)

Remember to adjust your picture (Brightness etc) using the picture button on the Panasonic remote (may take 10 min but worth it).

It’s a bit of a faf, but It beats paying for a new plasma.

I have done it with great success.
