A while ago I saw a TAP which prevented the TV from auto changing to the topfield when it started for a recording, so if watching a DVD etc then it wouldn't switch to the PVR. I didn't need it then but now I do as it's been switching in the middle of PS3 games!

I have tried searching but can't find it now . I'm pretty sure it was a TAP so just wondered if anyone here knows what it's called/where to get it

Thanks

If you want to prevent the Toppy from ever switching your TV, then I think you can try a small piece of paper (or other insulating material) over pin8 of the SCART connector may just fix it:
