Video connections
The AVR250 allows for conversion between different video formats. This means that the AVR250 can convert between composite,
For example, if you are watching a composite input from a VCR, you may view it from the
The record loops do not work from the video converter. This means that to record a
The following video conversions are possible:

Some video projectors and most European TV sets require the use of a
Note that most SCART TV inputs will require the SCART RGB status line to be controlled before the RGB signal will be displayed. The RGB trigger output will control this signal when connected to the SCART socket using a cable of the type given on page 32. These cables are available from your dealer.
