AppleTV leads

without comments

As you may know from previous posts I have bought an Appletv and connected via HDMI to my computer monitor.

I am starting to build up some content on it so thought I would buy a lead to connect to my main tv which is scart or s-video. I bought a foxtel lead for almost $70 which I was told would be ok as it is basically a scart-component video out.

Unfortunately I have not been able to get this to work at all. Not even to get sound. I am not sure why as it doesn’t look like it could be 1 way (it is actually made to take scart output of foxtel box and send it to component tv).

Anyway, moral of the story is don’t buy this lead! Maybe use bits and pieces combo solution instead!
