V3.1 RGB to PAL/NTSC Adapter Compatible TV

I know you guys don't have SCART connectors in the states, so how do you connect up things with RGB outputs (IE: Amiga's, DVD Players/ Recorders etc...

You can get scaler/conversion devices which take RGB SCART as input and have VGA outputs which you can hook up to your TFT/LCD. Some also do SCART/RGBHV to HDMI conversion.

The main advantage to this S-Video adapter is the substantially improved signal quality.

So does that mean devices like DVD players/recorders etc... in the states all come with no RGB output !!!

No. I think you are a bit confused. There are connection standards (e.g. SCART, Composite, Component, HDMI, etc.) and there are signal standards (e.g. RGB or YUV).

You can use HDMI cables to transmit RGB or YUV. Likewise, you can use a SCART connector/cable to transmit RGB or Composite.

Since devices like DVD players/recorders all have either HDMI or Component outputs, US citizens are not in a different position than Europeans. And even a YUV signal through Component is not much different from an RGB signal. It is just transcoded.

There are even converters that accept SCART (RGB) as input and supply a transcoded YPbPr signal via Component as output.
