What is that supposed to help with?

tweetiepooh was complaining that a scart coverter was composite.

My main problem with V6 is that it doesn't have SCART and HDMI -> SCART converter is composite and not good enough.

My bad, scart is composite anyway.

Your link was to a SCART to HDMI convertor. And SCART can carry individual RGB drives if the destination can accept them. I used to run our Philips 100Hz matchline like that from the Samsung box and has set my mothers TV to the same from her Sky box.

When it's running component RGB it isn't that different to a component analog connection via phono leads. That's pretty decent quality. Remember that no matter how "digital" a source is, it eventually has to be converted to analog for display.

Very fond of my TiVo scart out, it feeds a dvd recorder and 3 extra tvs. The V6 won't won't be crossing my threshold anytime soon.

Got a V6 and Hub 3 sent via self install kit to replace one of my two TiVos and a SHub 2 and was told to dispose of my old kit in a recycling centre.
