    Hi, I have got two Samsungs, if they are on HDMI and I use the red standby button on tv remote to switch them off and on they come back on to HDMI. They should only revert to tv if you press a channel button to switch it back out of standby.Same with the sky remote, ok as long as you dont press a channel button. should be ok.

    Hi, how do you select HDMI in the first place, just had a look at manual/remote on Samsung support and it appears to be the same as mine

    Could it be that you have something else connected via scart, if that appliance is left on then the scart switching voltage will kick the tv into AV. If so, prove it by switching to standby any other appliances connected via scart.
