Hi Rod,

Well, I have just bought a brand new VCR.  It has the usual Video-sound
in/out.  But no SCART.  What exactly does the SCART connector look
like?

Any ideas on where I could get one from?

I would like to be able to make a video for our user group here.  64
mode is a sinch, but it is the RGBi that's a hassle.

Well, actually, I have just wandered off and called Jaycar.  They have
one for $34.95 in a kit.  So I'll give it a whirl.  It is for a CGA to
composite video.

And looking at the specs ... it should be ok.  Pin 7 is blank on my CGA
spec sheet, but is for monochrome on the C=.  does this matter?

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Greg
