This was somewhat hard to find:

It used to be on EAB, but now had disappered from there ??

I made a RGB to SCART cable following this guide and it works perfectly on my Bravia LCD TV.

I did try to make the cable with some older quide first (without the resistors), and it did not work on my LCD indeed.

And a couple of A600\'s :).

An alternative arrangement for the sound is to utilise the cores within the scart cable to carry the audio.  The phono jacks will simply exit at the back of the Amiga's RGB connector.  That way you don't have two cables trailing over the floor or WHY.

its probably the damn "blanking signal" on scart pin16.
why oh why they don't have an option to manually switch rgb mode like CRT has.
Better sorry than worry.
