just bought a new lcd telly (viewpia 22" thingy) and im connecting my freeview box to it (luxor 104B). So far its connected with a scart cable, however im under the impression that scart is a bit rubbish and there are better ways of doing it for better picture quality.
Is this correct and if which ones are better?

just make sure that the output type from your freeview? box
is set to RGB and that the scart is then plugged into AV1 or external1
whatever they are called these days
(in the days of old av1 was the only RGB connection on a tv)
