Fully RGB connected SCART lead would be the best, although the difference between that and SVideo is usually pretty small, both being a lot better than composite (which a non-fully connected SCART lead may use, and also a non-RGB SCART socket on your TV may use, so be careful when wiring it up ).

Question leading on from above..

Which takes priority? RGB ntl digital or RGB dvd? Our TV has 3 scart sockets but only 1 can use RGB.

Well I'd say DVD but I'm biased.

Also, make sure you set up RGB in your DVD menu.
The SCART will usually be able to carry Composite, S-Video or RGB.

btw, RGB is MUCH better tha S-Video.
Bolder colours, sharper detail, less fizz etc
