Thanks.

This means you'll need both an SVIDEO cable and a gender bender to get it to work. Someone in the design department was high the day they built it.
Personally I never use mine.
I was looking for an "F-type" connector, but they don't seem to exist. Maybe the TV I'm trying to plug into is just too old!Samba Pa Ti posted on Feb 20 2007 at 01:36 PM said:you can convert it to scart if you want, i thought you wanted to make it an RF signal

that or similar (lots of them about) will convert to rca/phono which can be plugged into the tv directly or a scart
Ouch, it's pretty useless then. Straight to the bin.Samba Pa Ti posted on Feb 20 2007 at 02:54 PM said:thats just a coaxial connector, its impossible to connect svideo/scart signals to RF without a modulator
You need a RF modulator like this one, and a S Video extension cord.DanSolo posted on Feb 20 2007 at 05:08 PM said:Ouch at it's pretty useless then. Straight to the bin.
Unless there's a cheap SCART adaptor? My DVD player will take that. But it would still be the wrong gender plugs I guess.
IF your TV/Video device supports S-Video over Scart, it is NOT part of the standard and doesn't have to be supported, it is being offered on newer sets as a convenience.DanSolo posted on Feb 20 2007 at 09:10 AM said:More searching...
This SCART to S-Video on ebay is cheap...
Item number: 230090645023
And then I could you a male-male (or is it female-female) converter...
Item number: 150093891695
That'd be about £15.00 for the lot.

Does your TV have a scart input? then you simply need a S-Video to scart Adaptor like this, a S-Video extension(!) cord and a common chinch cable, in case you don´t have one anyway.
This is a Chinch cable:DanSolo posted on Feb 22 2007 at 01:10 PM said:Fishbong posted on Feb 21 2007 at 11:35 AM said:Sorry i don´t understand.

Is this an S-video extension cord?

And what is a common chinch cable? A Google gives me hundreds of types.
This is hurting my little brain.
