I think you are going to need a RF modulator box.

I think I've seen them on Maplin's. You realise the quality will be poor from your DVD player.....

In fact look at this on www.maplin.co.uk

item code QZ15R - its an RF modulator for a camera system but would work on any video souce.

You need a scart to composite video/audio scart lead (cheap), a phono to phono 'Y' lead to join the left/right audio chanels into one (even cheaper), these then plug into the yellow & white connectors shown on this box.

Job's a good 'un (well as good as its gonna get)

Thumbs up

That's perfect

Yes, I realise that it ain't gonna be a good picture, but it's to go in my conservatory with a portable TV (for the kids), until I get a TV with a SCART....

Get a new telly. :P Scart is preferable, but you could get away with just the 3 (red/white/yellow) rca inputs instead. I think you'd be hard pushed to find a telly without a scart tho. Connect it as RGB when you get one, assuming the DVD player is RGB compatable too.

why get a new telly? for £35 I'll be sorted

Besides, it's for the kids - leaves me with my Toshiba 32" widescreen and DTS system
