    I am not familiar with SCART.  It's a "Euro" only thing.  ;)

        Job continued:

Which indicates that there needs to be a signal of more than 1 Volt offered 
to the 'blanking' input, in order to have the TV expect RGB input (otherwise 
it assumes composite on the SCART). >>

        I say:

    In "the old days", subcarrier, blanking, vertical and horizontal drive 
pulses were between 4 and 5 volts and fed separately from a sync generator to 
whatever needed them.  Those days are thankfully gone now thanks to pulse 
generators built into VTRs and studio cameras, etc. that accept composite 
video as a reference and make everything needed from it.

        I reply:

    I am here to help.
