Is there a reason why an S Video source viewed via a phono/svideo to scart adapter should display in black and white only? I am trying to view this through an Avant MK2 scart input and distribute the picture on Beolink. If I use the camcorder S Video connection I get a colour picture but cannot access it from a link room.

Thanks for any advice

David

Hi,

Not all SCART inputs are SVHS/RGB enabled, you need to check in the Avant manual to see which SCART takes the Y/C signal, if I remember mine was plugged in the AV2 socket, not AV1(VCR), and not AV3 (decoder).

Correct. It is the 'AV'  scart that accepts Y/C - I was trying to use the 'DECODER' input.

Many thanks for the help.

David.
