Tom, thanks for the advise but it didn't work... However I did find the problem: my STB doesn't like having 2 SCART connections at the same time. If I just use the HTPC the picture is fine but as soon as I connect the TV the pictures on the HTPC misbehaves...:)
my STB is provided by NTL (virgin Media) in the UK and the model number is DI4001DC. hope this will help someone else.
