It will if you send from the "TV" scart (except when using HDMI)

It's only the "VCR" scart that has no menu

Is RF enabled all the time? Can you get EPG on RF even when using HDMI?

this works for me

[& don't believe the statement about remote control signals 'not working' on cable ]

[this unit worked fine with old Samsung V box and works fine on my V+ box]

it's got 3 signal senders so you can control DVD-player & VCR etc as well as the V / V+ box

even bought a 2nd unit

Thanks everyone for your help, virgin finally sent an engr out to me today.
He re-tuned the box and said that the box was set to use scartlead cos "channel 5" frequency interfer with the virgin frequency in Norwich area, so if any virgin customer in norwich area wants to use the RF output, virgin will have to come out and retune the box to another frequency for it to work on RF.
