Scart Converter
I have a VHS player that's in full working order but there is no scart connection on the back of the TV I wish to use it on.
The only connections are HDMI and USB, are there any converters I can buy to use that will work in the way I wish to use this with?
Thanks?

I will add the splitters I tried was a number of years ago the tech should be better now

Re: Scart Converter
Is the TV equipped with a normal analogue tuner? If so a SCART to RF modulator would do the job.
I use a similar setup to send the DVD recorder/player SCART output round the house.
Main TV is connected via component leads (RGB LR) for best quality

You can direct either of 2 outputs to a single display, or you can choose which of 2 displays receives from a single output.
If all of your display/TV HDMI sockets are full, then it's a switch that you need. You select which input/source is directed to the display/TV HDMI port.
The device might work as it appears to be a manual wired switch rather than an electronic one.
