I have read it in a DVD magazine that a certain kind of SCART cable makes a difference in the picture quality. Is this true?

A what cable? I've never heard of it. Is it a brand?

I believe SCART cables are used in America mainly for connecting video-game boxes to a television but in Europe for connecting DVD players and such. I don't know anything about them, either, like whether if a TV set has such connections they would be superior to component inputs. Sorry, Sasha. Somebody out there should know something, though. Be patient.

Really? I thought it was the most popular TV-DVD player connection everywhere. Is this one of those things you are just too stubborn to accept, like the metric system?

That could be. Most new American TVs have composite video inputs, S-Video inputs, and component video inputs. But SCART? What do the letters stand for?

It is a Europe thing.
It can also carry a RGB signal which I believe also is a Europe thing.
Unless you use SCART for RGB a S-Video connection will provide a more clear picture.

English, Chinese, Spanish, and French (a little).
By the way, what's funny about all this is that I was accused by another Forum user of having a "prejudiced" attitude towards the French, yet the French are the ones implementing cultural rejectionism as official policy.

Fortunatelly, not everything gets screwed up there.
So, you studied French? What other langues do you speak then?

Well, why is it that when I studied French (under the tutelage of a teacher from France, no less!), we were taught that "weekend" was "le weekend" and not "le fin de semaine"? There are hella inconsistencies here. :@

It is far cry from English itself. The experts count nearly 1 mln. English words, and only about 26,000 French words. Reason being that while English languge adds words from different languages, including French, the French folks are making up laws to restrict words such as "e-mail" and "walkman". If a student in France mentions a "walkman" in his school paper, he will fail no matter how good the composition is.
Of course, import-export is different. The U.S. does have limitations in trade, as do most of the other counties who protect their citizens from unemployment. Yet it is outrageous that someone would be so ignorant as to invent a brand new technology to shut down the entire product from entering one´s market.
