Firstly you don't need a SCART lead, these are completely analogue affairs. To get digital sound out of the box to your decoder (if that is what your "Sound bar" is) then you will need either one of two types of connection lead depending on what is available on your box. 1 An optical toslink cable, which is essentially a fibre optic Regards.

Hi I've just had my goodmans freeview box installed by the switchover team and all is working fine. However I would like to link this up to my audio soundbar to obtain a richer sound than from my TV. I heard on the list some time ago that a scart lead/plug is available with an optical output, I know nothing of these and whether they have an optical output incorporated into the scart to scart lead or whether I would need to plug it into the second scart socket on the freeview box. Can anyone out there give any advice.
