    Default Scart to HDMI lead

    Is there such a thing as a 20 pin Scart to HDMI lead ?

    I have just bought a Samsung TV and plugged everything in except the video recorder which has a 20 pin Scart connection. The TV has no Scart inputs.

    I have looked on on E-Bay and couldn't see anything suitable.

    Think scart is analogue, HDMI digital, suspect this may be the problem. HDMI to DVI or DVI to HDMI does work as both are digital.

    Something like this?

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Thanks lads. I knew you would come up with the goods.

    I did see similar on E-Bay but didn't understand the "upscaling" bit.

    I've just been wresting with this problem. Yes SCART to HDMI converters are available, but their performance is dubious. You will get a picture but the colour fidelity is just awful - almost unwatchable.
