   Smartlink
   SmartLink is a protocol found on some Sony TV sets, set-top boxes, video and DVD recorders, that transmits commands over a SCART lead to other compatible equipment - the practical upshot is that you could get your Sony DVD recorder to record what's being seen on your Sony TV with a single button-press, or press Play on a DVD to have the DVD start and the TV switch to the correct Line-In socket. The protocol is used by other manufacturers under different names: Megalogic (Grundig), Easylink / Cinemalink (Philips), Q-Link (Panasonic), T-V Link (JVC) or Euro View Link (Toshiba).
