If her video has a scart socket its ok.
Get hack for Dansai and in hidden menu turn off the Macrovision, you can put it on region bypass here too if they will be getting R1 discs.
You can now link scart from the Dansai into the video scart socket and watch dvd picture on the video`s AV channel going into the tele.On the channel they normally watch video on tele.
At least that is what you can do on ours .
Hope this is of some help. all the best Mark.
Let us know how you get on.

I believe in places like Dixons you can pick up a Scart adaptor, that will allow 2 scarts into one scart connection
