Windows 10: Can SCART pass thru to component at 1080p - note NOT COMPOSITE

Hee hee. I do. It is still a bit sad though Apple seem intent on scuppering themselves. I don't care particularly but it is a shame anyway.

On my bike I connect using Bluetooth to my GPS and Sena intercom. It works extremely well. The sound quality is pitiful but then all on a bike sound quality is always pitiful (it is so noisy anyway) and I don't think Bluetooth is the limiting factor. I can make a call if I slow down and shout and can just about hear my music over the wind noise if I turn it up really loud.

I may be going slightly OT here (considering the question was regarding SCART leads) but there we are. The OP started this transgression *Smile

 

Not sure if this will play outside of UK / Europe (we're waiting for apple to pay their taxes so we can buy a better streaming system ) ...

Hi there
@Barman58

VPN --fine so link is OK so link works.

I think I paid more taxes in the UK last month than Google / Apple did combined I think !!! and I'm sure I'm not alone in that one.

I got round the SCART problem -- changing the HDMI cable and splitter - now got the Capture device to work at full 1080p.

Next problem though -- need to convert m2ts to mkv or mp4 so PLEX will play it. That's easily do-able though. Playback is full 1080p -- streets ahead of the 576p from the DVD recorder especially on a decent TV.

Anyway set up is now

SKYQ minibox--->HDMI splitter (iSolem - but get the one WITHOUT the iSolem label on it- this one strips off DRM)--->HDMI OUT--->HDMI in on the-StarTech capture device--->-USB on computer --you have to use a POWERED USB slot or it won't work.

Software for capturing --came with the device Vivastation.

Works brilliantly -- no more scart or DVD recorder now needed !!!!!! Capture window also can go to full screen so no extra output HDMI to monitor needed when viewing in real time.

Problem solved.

(Note SKY Q Miniboxes output at 1080p - change resolution in settings as the default is 1080i. SKY does now transmit at native 1080p for the SKY Q system and also at 4K (UHD) for some events --football etc. You can currently only get 4K UHD on the main SKY Q silver box though).
