I have a Humax 9200T PVR attached to my KDL-40EX603 via SCART (AV1 on the TV) and due to a s/w bug in the Hummy causing Series Link recordings to fail when the unit is in standby I tend to leave it switched on all the time.

The annoying problem is that when I turn the TV on it will auto-switch to AV1. sometimes this happens immediately, but can take up to ~20 secs, which is even more annoying as I might bring up the Guide and start looking at what's on when it just changes to AV1.

If you cant do it in software - you can always disable (cut/desolder) pin 8 on the scart cable itself. I think this may also stop auto aspect ratio switching to function, but you will certainly not lose any picture or sound information. This definitely works.

Google "SCART + pinout" for more info - I would give you a link, but you know the rules...
