Yes! About SCART connectors, ... Tony Duell wrote: Even while plugging one in, I always end up with an uncertain feeling about the connector being seated properly. And it does not provide any shields between the audio and video signals, so I'd expect cross-talk. Although they are spaced pretty far apart, the relatively large spades might make nice coupling capacitors... What sort of cable do use to fit into the strain relief when using all pins? - The cable should also have different runs for video (impedance matched), audio (low capacity), and data lines (just well shielded), all with separate grounds... - Once I find a suitable cable, I might try, but I think soldering will be the easier part. (I did make my own Ethernet transceiver cables years ago. AUI provides very limited space in the connector shell, too.) I think SCART intended to be a non-proprietary bus for complete video/HiFi systems, easy to install for people who don't know the different between an input and output jack/socket: I have heard people talk about the "line input" of a CD player, for example. Well, you can put a connector in there, yeah! Whenever possible, I also prefer more specific connectors (and, yes, BNC for video and RCA or even XLR for audio would certainly do well), and I usually have no trouble telling from where to where a cable needs to go, so SCART doesn't really seem to be made for me. Many cheap TV sets and satellite receivers have SCART connectors around here, but my A/V receiver (Onkyo TX-DS939, for those familiar with them) has none at all. It prefers gold-plated RCA and other connectors, obviously for a good reason. -- Andreas Freiherr Vishay Semiconductor GmbH, Heilbronn, Germany http://www.vishay.com
