sony 305 dvd player connections

neilybealy · 16-02-2003, 3:55 PM

hi all

i'm getting a free 305 dvd player and am wondering the best way for connecting to my tv

would i be better off buying a qed/ixos/thor scart lead or use my existing s-video lead with a gold(plated) scart block on the tv end?

that is provided the 305 has a s-video output !!

cheers

neil

EDIT - the s-video lead is a puresonic lead

neily - Use an RGB scart cable to hook it up. I sold my 'free' 305 to a bloke in work and am getting a SD220 but will be using monster cable 3 scart to scart 1m for the hook up. Can't wait for my 32fx66 to arrive on Wednesday - although I won't be unboxing it for another week and a half after delivery

okies

thanks very much

i think my decision has already been made for me because i don't think the 305 has an s-video connector !

I just found a review and no it doesn't have s-vhs connections.

the thor scarts are supposed to be fantastic. Let us know how you get on.
