anyone know if connectors exist to get video from a std vga output on a computer to a SCART input for the tv?
ive found a few ideas, but most of them require you to build a circuit of sorts, im just looking to see if anyone has bought the finished product. |

You can get tv out cards and route that to vga via that and use the standard scart plug.

I agree go video card with TV out.
If not, it would be easier to find a VGA to S-video or RCA connector. Then go S-video/RCA connector to Scart |

I've got a graphics card with TV out. All I need to do is plug an S-video lead into the graphics card, and connect the other end to the TV. It's a good feature

Im the same as Silver Ghia....Just bought an entry level 128 mb Nvidia Card for $120.00
You can use it for dual monitors also.....If you don't have an s video input on your tele you can get an adapter for Composite input which is just basically a single RCA(or one side of an RCA lol) also becuase theres 2 vga ports you could get a doubled ended vga cord |

s-video sucks on text on a tv screen
possible ways VGA to VGA tv-out to yellow on RCA DVI to VGA to VGA DVI to DVI DVI to HDMI (only video of couse) dont use longer than 4 metres HDMI to HDMI (only found on some cheap graphics cards) anything to scart i havent seen either upgrade the tv, run a vcr through the scart and the computer through the VCR (cheapest option)
