The best advice would be to get a good quality one shipped from the UK. I managed to find a converter here a year ago but its very low quality.

If you can't do that, you could try some of the Sony outlets because the original Playstation 2 used to ship with an adaptor that converted scart to the three standard video/left/right stereo outputs.

Good luck

Try your local Amorn shop. I found one there years ago. (In case you don't know, Amorn is kinda like a Thai version of Radioshack. They have branches many places in Thailand)

I saw a shop at Fortune (IT Mall) which specialized in connectors and had a lot of exotic ones. It wasn't in in the main computer area, but rather the shop area (opposite direction of Lotus). I think it was on the second or third floor, near the main group of office elevators. On the fourth floor there is also an Amorn, and I do remember seeing SCART cables there (but for what, I don't know).

thanks - looked in Amorn at Fortune. no luck......

Try the electronics shops in China Town, near Merry Kings.

They carry pretty well everything.

Normaly on the pins at the SCART connector you should find sound left and right (like white and red Chinch plug). RGB (RedGreenBlue) signals and the composit signal (like the yellow connector on the TV). So it should be possible. to make the cable yourself, I am sure you find the wiring on the internet.

Some devices do have a scart connector but don't provide the RGB signal (VCR, some DVD-player, the PS2 when you watch movies, you need a modchip to turn on RGB signal).

Never again

And to get to the Scart to composite question yes they have one in the workshop, but non for sale

I need help in finding a SCART adapter. Anyone know where I can get one?

thanks

Yep got 2 there from them this week at 150 baht each ..

Went to the Amorn at Fortune.. when i asked about "scart adapter" they looked at me like i was from Mars.

Anyone know anywhere else I can get a scart adapter in bangkok, other than "D O Siam" or China town?

I definitely saw some at Amorn at Zeers Rangsit this week. Don't go asking for it, just go look for it in the audio/video cables section. SCART is rare in Thailand, so it's normal that Thais wouldn't have a clue about it.

Firefoxx, thanks for the info... will try to go this Sunday.

And in Forune Tower as well and only 150 baht each , brought some for a pal yesterday .. they have hundred of them.

youbet, which Fortune and how many Fortune's are there in Bangkok? I went to the one with I.T. Mall at Ratchadapisek Road.

Which store?

Thanks.

That's the only Fortune (IT Mall) there is. And there's only one Amorn there, on the 4th floor (or maybe 5th).

I was at Fortune on Saturday... couldn't find any SCART adapters, spent at least 20 minutes, went thru the isles twice... didn't see any.

Amorn on 4th floor.

<sigh>

Pretty strange. I'm not sure about Amorn at Fortune, but I am certain I saw some at Amorn Zeers last week.

Just got back from Amorn at Zeers, couldn't find any... I finally asked the staff and they are clueless.

it's only video output is a SCART connector.... something unheard of outside Europe it seems

I discovered that as well recently when speaking to Philips Tech Support in the States. They also hadn't heard of scart adapters out there.
