Cheap and chearful...for a while.
This scart lead is dirt cheap but I got fed up with it being a struggle to connect. I bought a better quality one that fits into my TV without any fuss.

Cheap SCART cables really ain't worth the money
Sadly my six year old Bush DVD player broke down beyond repair around three weeks ago, and while I was waiting to pick and buy a replacement, a friend of mine asked if he could borrow my existing SCART cable until I needed it back. Naturally I ordered my new DVD player from Amazon, and at the same time I decided to order another SCART cable. I just thought that it would be a good idea to get a cheap spare - after all there's not much difference between a £1 cable and a £10 cable (or so I thought)...

My SCART cable arrived the day before my DVD player, so I told my friend that I'm not in a hurry for my original cable back. I setup my player with the cable, and was surprised how loose it was in the socket. I didn't think that this was a major problem, after all I don't often move my entertainment unit so I guessed it would be alright. But after setting everything up and eagerly grabbing the first DVD I saw (Rush Hour) to try out, I was shocked to find very noticeable colour distortion (even in the DVD menu.) Assuming the worse, and after trying another DVD I thought that there was a fault in the DVD player. So slightly annoyed I phoned the manufactures helpline, and they quickly told me that my problem lies in my SCART cable. Sounds simple, but believe it or not I didn't even consider it as a possibility.

So, alas my friend returned my original working cable, which I hooked up straight away, and to my delight my new DVD player works perfectly. Afterwards I was looking at both cables and the connections on them, and even my old SCART cable which cost my just less than a tenner several years ago looks better quality than this new cable. More to the point it works far better. I guess it does matter how much you spend on a cable. I'm a big believer in value for money, but sadly in this case I would advise you to avoid this cable and spend a few pound more on a better one.

you get what you pay for
Bought this a part of a dvd player package.Well as i said you get what you pay for-1st the casing fell off then there was a persistent hum on all the dvds whenever there should have been silence.A waste of £1.99-off to comet to get something better for my mother's Christmas present.
