I got a s-video to scart cable for connecting my PC to my VCR/TV but after testing it I found that the cable is other way round (will take a picture from my vcr scart and send it to s-video)

best I can see is its wired as follows ..

**21 pin Euro scart connector**

19 VIDEO/Sync/Luminance Output
17 VIDEO/Sync/Luminance Ground
15 RED/Chroma
13 RED/Chroma Ground

Would I be correct in thinking disconnecting the wire from pin 19 and connecting it to pin 20 (VIDEO/Sync/Luminance Input) would give me a cable that would send a picture to my vcr / tv ??

(just wanted to make sure)

Thanks
 
Naah, not exactly.

If you only switch 19 and 20, you'll only switch the Y from the Y/C connection (means: You get a B/W picture).

You also need to switch the chroma round (don't know out of my head which pins these are - I can look for it, if you can't find out)
 
Thanks and I would appreciate it if you could find out for me as im not sure about rewiring pins 15 / 13 (RED-Chroma / Ground)

Thanks again :)

Edit:I found something but I think it converts the Video into Composite video would that be the only way to get video in to the scart connector ?
