Any chance you could use Component instead?

Is that the flat ones? We had them just one SCART now to get rid off when we get a new DVD playerOriginally Posted by istari_knight

Silly question (?) are they better than SCART ?

I swapped out SCART for Componets, the picture improved. You just need 5 phono leads.. Your R.G&B leads & your L+R sound channels..But would use HDMI whenever possible..

To be honest I cant tell any difference over a 99p shielded one ! I always thought RGB scart & component carry the same signal ? Only difference being scart max's out at 480i & analogue component at 576p... If your tivo has component out & your tv has component in then it will be worth it but if it requires conversion don't bother.
It all depends on the individual source & tv at the end of the day. For example, my crappy LG LCD has a better picture running 576P component from an Arcam DV27A over 1080p HDMI from a Bluray player.

As far as I am concerned the best SCART leads ever were the Thor SCART leads. I designed them myself and won a couple of awards for their design. And the company I worked for sold millions SCART leads designed by me all over the world. My designs were frequently copied by competitors.
There is a used 3m on sale at http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Thor-3m-pr...item2a3c4ebce3
