PS3, PS2, Virgin media VBox and TV interface question

[homeforsummer]

Righty.

I've recently moved into a new flat. I have a PS2 and PS3, an old CRT TV with a single scart socket in the back, and a Samsung VBox provided through Virgin Media which provides our TV.

I have a router which provides our internet via wired/wireless. The PS3 is hooked up to this no worries and our laptops work wirelessly so again no worries there.

What I'd like is to have the PS3 and the VBox both somehow going into the TV and to just be able to switch between them at will, rather than having to unplug one to plug in the other as is the case at the moment.

What do I need to do to achieve this? Is there a way of doing it without swapping cables all the time? And ideally, I'd like to do this at minimum expense.

At some point I will be getting a HD TV, I promise...

Muchos thanks and invisible rep to anyone able to help 👍

Would a scart switch box work?

Keep in mind that I have no working experience with scart.

TB nailed it there. I've got a simpler switch box which I used to use for various consoles and it works great.

Not sure if it's worth £20 though, I paid much less for mine and it does just fine (bear in mind I did get mine quite a while ago though).

I provide the solution, homeforsummer can supply the deal.

Definately not worth £20.

This for example is dirt cheap, but I would say £10-£15 would get you something decent.

Thanks for the help people, I'll get one of those then! Internet cookies for you all. And not the bad kind.
