PACE STB - SVHS output???
 
Does anyone know the actual output formats that come from the scart socket on the PACE di1010t STB?

I want to get a projector with a S-VHS input on the back but I need to know if the box outputs in SVHS or not.

In theory SCART can do composite, S-VHS and RGB.

Any info???

have a look in the settings menu....

on my ntl pace 4000 box i only have options of RGB or composite output

Edit:
if it is the same with your box, something like this might help: http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?...ldID=&doy=20m4

I presume you mean s-video, but I'm afraid the answer's no. All Telewest boxes output only composite or RGB on the TV scart (RGB must be selected in the options), and only composite on the VCR scart.

You can get RGB to s-video converter boxes, so you might want to try your luck with one of them.

NTL Langley Di4001 boxes with hardware type 0 and 1 have an S-video output but no RGB.

BTW, S-VHS is a tape format and nothing to do with a video signal or connector.

For some converters try http://www.keene.co.uk/ and in particular:

Thanks for that info everyone. I'll have to go for a projector with RGB capable scart inputs then - more of a hassle for cabling as it needs to go over 10 metres under floorboards. I think I need to make up a cable using individually screened cables

something like this:

Then I just need to find which of the SCART's 21 pins to use - surely not all of them??

Can you route some flat scart cables under the carpet?
