S-video

Is there an easy (read cheap) way to convert from SCART output to S=video
input?

TIA.

 

just buy the right cable.

 

Thanks -

When I finally found my Maplin catalogue, there was an adapter from SCART to
S-VHS with 2 extra phono leads for L+R audio, presumably the PC S-VHS input
card will extract the audio from the composite?

 

your mileage might vary but with my nvidia GFX card the svid output is
just that - I had to run the audio from the sound card as well and
then chucked everything into a little box with a scart plug on one
side and svid & 2xPhone on the other (just looks like a big scart plug
in the back of my telly)

 

It won't. S-video is always videoonly with separate audio.

 

The card's documentation claims it can feed output via S-video to a TV set
as well as act as a capture card, but there are no RCA jacks for audio and
one illustration shows a S-video to single RCA jack for composite video
connection - so I wonder if the manufacturer has used a S-video connector
more because its a good fit for the slot plate than strict adherence to the
S-video standard.

 

Audio comes from your PC sounccard (or to in the case of a capture card).

They use an S-video jack so S-video can be used, if desired. S-video is
simply the Lumiance and Chromiance spearated. The card could simply gate
the Chroma onto the Luma line, making it composite.
