No, this is for a video signal - known as 'component'

what i would recommend is running an optical lead if your new amp supports it from the sky box / dvd / blueray

Those are video component inputs, not audio outputs.

You can bodge an audio output using the headphone jack - that's the way I've our temporary TV wired to my amp while the big telly is away being unbroken.

The Scart will have an audio out, you need a Scart/phono adaptor

Similar to this, but you can get them for a couple of quid elsewhere.

Make sure you get an OUT rather than an IN. Or they do come with a switch for IN/OUT which are better.

It will work. The adaptors are a couple of quid on Ebay.

This is what you want

Allows you to plug in the Humax to the TV and take the audio out to the amp.

The SCART interface does indeed carry the audio out capability but the TV dosent necessarily use it, in my experience if the TV dosent have a specific audio out connector then it dosent have the relevant circuitry that goes with the audio out functionality. In this case you may find that the audio out on the SCART may be nothing at all or even the audio from the Analogue tuner which isnt much use if your using Freeview. That TV has a headphone socket next to the Aerial input, looks like this is your best bet, your going to need a 3.5mm stereo jack to 2x Phono lead to try it.

ETA, the VCR SCART on the PVR will carry the Audio out from the PVR box. (it has to to enable you to record to tape from the PVR)
