Hi Steve

No, it's definately stereo. I've tried it. The socket is recessed so some jacks may not fit fully.

Hi Paul,

So it's not true that the headphone out is mono then? I thought it was.

All the best

Steve

The set top box has a stereo audio output with a standard headphone socket.

There are 2 scart sockets, both providing audio output.

There is no optical output.

Hi Folks

I've been on the RNIB web site to try and find the technical details of
the box but alas cannot find anything. It's been mentioned on this thread
that the box doesn't have an audio output, but someone mentioned that it
did have a headphone output which was only in mono. So can someone please
clarify for me:-

1. To obtain audio output do I need a scart to phono plug?
2. Does the box have optical output.
3. Is the headphone output sterio or mono
4. How many scart sockets does the box have.

I'm currently using the NetGem box which I have set up with scart to a
scart switch and then to my TV and The optical output goes to my soundbar

If the Goodmans box only has one scart and no audio output then I'm not
going to be able to do this.   I'll have to either lose output to my
soundbar or lose the better quality of picture via scart from the box to
TV (not a problem to me but my sighted family won't appreciate it).

So can someone please post a description of the sockets on the back of the

box.

Thanks
Martin
