Where Can I Buy a cheap LCD TV in England?

Where can I buy a 'RGB' cable to connection my pc to lcd tv? I live in England by the way?

  • Answer:

    Some of the answers are confused. Probably because the people have never done what you want to do. RGB (red,green.blue) signals are normally taken into a televison set though a SCART connection. The socket must be configured to receive RGB (which it probably is by default on most tellys). In the UK we do not use phono (RCA) connectors for RGB, but this type of connector is used for "Component" video. This is NOT the same as RGB so don't let the Americans confuse you even more. Also, one of the American answers claims that we don't use D type connectors - that isn't true, the VGA is a D type. VGA carries RGB but the line and field synchronisation signals are carried in a different way from that used in SCART. Therefore you need a special adaptor to swap between the two, a simple lead with a SCART plug at one end and a VGA at the other will not work. VGA cannot carry audio so you'll have to use separate leads for that. You cannot buy real VGA-SCART adaptors anywhere. Decent tv and computer shops will stock them. But,unless you are very lucky, most tv salsemen (in places like Curry's or Comet) won't know what you're talking about and will "waffle". MAPLIN Electronics sells suitable adaptors, but they're not cheap. www.maplin.co.uk

Just about any electronic store will carry them, it is cable the component cable. Or you can use a regular RCA jacks, keep in mind that if you connect one end to the blue you will need to connect the other end to the blue same as the other two. Hope this will help you out.

RGB? VGA cables carry RGB colors and I don't think England uses D-Terminal so any radio shack or British electronics store like it
