Not quite as funny as your Composite Video & S-Video connectors.. :D
:roflmao:

Oh, it's funny because it's so sad! No SCART in Australia either. I still haven't been able to find a good RGB-to-Something Useful converter (component or HDMI). Why can't RGB SCART be an international standard? :(

Sillyness. (as above from danbeaver) All you need is an Amiga 23pin Video to Scart Cable from Amigakit and a scart(RGB) to HDMI converter. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SCART-HDMI-to-HDMI-1080P-HD-Video-Adapter-Converter-NEW-/400538432467?pt=AU_CablesConnectors&hash=item5d41f373d3
Plus a HDMI cable.  Not cheap but crystal clear video on a modern tv/HDMI enabled Monitor.
That one looks nice! Do you have that particular one? Does it work nicely? I'm using my 1070 monitor so I'm not that desperate for a converter but just in case I bring my Amiga somewhere else. We do have retro game evenings sometimes...

RGB/scart to ypbpr appears to give a good picture, the best I've seen actually... but not all tvs will accept this signal, so its a bit hit and miss if you go that route...
I bought one of those RGB SCART to Component converter and my TV didn't like it. I'm not too happy about that. That means I have one for sale if anyone is interested :)
