Default Adding another dvd player\recorder

Hi
We have a sky + box and a dvd player wired up to the TV via scart
leads
Is it possible to add\piggyback another dvd player\recorder so that
they all work without having to connect\disconnect one?
I hope this makes sense

you can just loop through a dvd recorder. For best recording put the
TV out scart from the sky box into the in scart socket on the dvd
recorder, then the other scart from the recorder goes to your tv's
main input.

I don't think dvd players have two scart sockets though.

Hi Paul
Would there be another way to achieve the same result then?

yeah, buy a recorder instead of a player :O)

You could buy a scart switch thingy, you know, where you can plug
multiple items into it and switch between them? You can even buy quite
advanced ones, where they switch electronically but they cost a lot
more.

Personally I would buy a dvd recorder, but make sure it has two scart
sockets.
