Which seems to be black/blue on my car. There isn't however any +12V that comes on when the RNS is switched on with the ignition off.
So, short of installing a relay or switch I'll need to have the ignition on to watch TV when parked up. 
I also found a description of the multi-pin video connector on a German web site. This might enable the old TV tuner to be dispensed with entirely, feeding the DVB-T directly to the RNS? NF = Niederfrequency = Audiofrequency
(Though the RNS seems to detect the tuner via the 6-pin power lead, unplug that and it's N/A)
On the plus side I've fixed my hum problem! (see other thread)
