Hi there,

Is anyone on the site still making these cables, or know where to source a breakout board? My current breakout board has died. For reference, I am running a Sony PVM.
Any help is appreciated.
Many thanks.

I never ended up getting a scart to BNC cable for my pvm basically because the cost was $50Aud ish shipped.

I ended up buying a scart to component cable that also has a rca wired for composite. Use rca to BNC adapters to plug into the pvm, and used a scart coupler/gender changer to plug the male scart plugs into each other.

Works absolutely perfectly and cost me $10-15.

The scart to component cables are typical wired the same as rgb scart should be. Since foxtel was using scart outputs for quite sometime these aren't hard to come by cheaply.

Worst case you may need to rewire the scart end.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers

Hit up daskrabs here. I'm not 100% on the price but, I think around $30-40.

This does sound pretty simple and I never thought to do it this way.

Is there a decent degradation in signal with this method though?

I would like to avoid any signal noise if possible.

No degradation that I can see.
