HEHEHE!!!

Ok, for bloodline only:
Translation from Greek:

Hello Greece!

So, AmigaRGB -> Scart cable will never work.

You must use Amiga's composite (RCA) output.
The reason is simple: RGB - > Scart cable does not change the video signal, only transferes the RGB signal to Scart plug. VTRs do not support this, only some TV sets do.

If you have any other questions mail me or post here ok?   :-)

Ok now bloodline ?  ;-)

RGB signal is 3 different signals in one connection:
Red Green and Blues signals are transfered directly to your tv set. So, your TV set MUST be able to accept Red Green abd Blue individual signals.

Composite is a "multiplexed version" of these signals, so it is 100% because ALL tv sets can "demultiplex" this signal.

[Animagic]

Yes, scart signals can be RGB/composite
Usually, most of the scart pins are used for the sound connection, so I don't think that there is room for another format like YUV on it.

where I can get an Amiga->S-Video cable

I'm afraid you will have to solder this yourself.
I haven't seen any ami -> s-video cables

search the aminet for info.

Gordon Bennett what are you lot piffling on about ?

I did Exactly what he's been trying to do .. For YEARS .

From what your've said it sounds like your've got it right ..SO..

Stop looking for the technical problems and start looking at the obvious....

Got your remote control handy ?
Trying switching between Line 1 / 2 / 3 .. or AV 1 / 2 / 3

I'll stick my neck out and say that little problems now cured !!

First of all, I asuumed that he has a regular PAL VCR with 1 or 2 scart inputs. This means that there is no way that his vcr will support RGB.

I' ve worked with many consumer vcr. Never seen any to support RGB in Greek market  :-P

And who the hell is Gordon Bennett ?  :-?

[Animagic]

i've no need to use google for those info but you probably yes

Ok, I am tired of idiotic posts.

Never had to connect my amiga trough rbg-svideo. I have genlocks to ALL my amigas, so it is obvious that I never had the need for that kinf of information!
I had to search in order to help!

So, what are you? The Mr. I Know Everything?
If you think so, you probably need some medical attention!!!

 :-x

Bite me!  :-P

[Animagic]

Hmm....

Video is your job...

Do you usually work with custom made soldered cables?

Because I don't!

I use only Broadcast Quality equipment mostly approved by EBU.

So, as you can see, I don't have the need for custom made cables that f^ck up the picture quality.

As for who is the idiot in these posts, I usually help people, don't post just to gain points like you little boy!
