Re: Composite video & SCART

["paul gordon" <paul_gordon@xxxxxxx>]

I've still got an old JVC VHS VCR lying around that has BNC connectors for
both video in and out - and they are both composite video. Unusually, this
machine has 5-pin DIN sockets for audio in/out as well!! - just goes to
show!!

Cheers.
