[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 15790"] [b]S-Video to Scart[/b] Hi You cant connect s-video to scart adapter directly cause they are all defective for PAL... :) Yes that true...I live in portugal and all s-video cables connected to scart adapters gives black and white.!! I never had time do open one scart to see what are they making wrong, cause its all about wires and a 470pf capacitor, not chips inside!!! Talking about s-video with 4 pins: Y-ground------------------+ +---------- RCA/composite ground C-ground------------------+ Y-------------------------+ +--------- RCA/composite video C------------||-----------+ 470pF If you have a 7-pin s-video (not standart), you must know whats in it, cause the extra 3 pins can carry composite already and some controls not used... dependsof the video card. My work around for tvs that only have scart connectors is to buy one s-video to RCA (a small peace and very cheap) and then with a cable connect it to the scart adapter. its easy and it works... quality is aceptable.
