I have a couple of those. They allow you to either feed composite video into a
scart port or get composite out. Since scart supports composite already, this
is just a passive adapter.

While browsing ebay I came across this item:

It's an 18.5" widescreen tv from for USD$50 and comes with a SCART input. For
those looking for an amiga monitor this should work nicely via scart. it also
has all the normal video inputs, like composite, component, hdmi and vga. The
only thing it needs is a stand. Oh, don't bother with the "best offer
option" as it will auto-decline anything below $48. With shipping and money
conversion it'll be about $120 CAD (plus import fees maybe).
I'll give a report on how it works when mine arrives ;-)

Hi, I ended up finding a A520 on EBay for $15 so I thought that was not bad
until he charged me $33 shipping.
So yes I would still be interested in the write up. Hopefully it will stop me
from wasting anymore money.

Steve ...
Meant to ask you ... would a short article on this and similar adapters be
of value for the next newsletter?

Yes, I have tested my ntsc Amiga 1200 with a scart cable and it worked fine.
SCART wasn't really known here but the technology is pretty standard. The
SCART cable was just one giant all-in-one connector for composite, s-video,
and RGB analog, along with stereo audio. The Amiga and the old consoles use
RGB analog at 15kHz. Really, you don't need the SCART cable... you could
just solder an Amiga DB-23 cable directly to the SCART-to-HDMI adapter.

Hi Steve, can you give me a link to which SCART to HDMI adapter on eBay
would be the correct one to buy. Also would a scart cable work on a NTSC
Amiga?

For about $40 you can get a SCART to HDMI adapter on ebay that works on the
Amiga, assuming you have a nice big HDMI-capable tv. That's gonna get you
the best quality.

I have one on order to try. You will need an amiga to SCART cable (about
$20) or you could wire up your own cable if you have a db-23 connector.
This adapter also works on quite a number of old consoles like Dreamcast,
Genesis, playstation etc, and should even work for C128 (which I plan to
test as well) and MAYBE even the PET ;-)

You can also build one if you are handy with a soldering iron. :0)

Hi Frank, EBay is hit & miss. Either I miss a good deal or they want crazy
money. There must be someone in this group that has an extra they could
part with.
