    I don't know if this is the right section, but I have a wd mini tv and it uses a headphone connection to a scart or a red/yellow/white into a scart adaptor at the minute.

    Basically im looking @ getting two more of these cables to leave in various tvs when i move the wd mini tv around. Any help or even a proper name for them would be great.

    Thanks in advance

    Headphone into scart? I never heard of that.

    Do you mean this?

    RCA to Scart

    or do you mean S-Vhs?

    Grand stuff thanks, its a strange cable alright, I think its more to do with the box being so small that the headphone socket six fitted best.

    Can you get them with scart top or do I just buy two of em separate?

    Yes, but they are very very rare.

    The best option is to do what your doing (Using a scart adapter) Unless something like this would suit you

    In that option would an headphone to headphone cable work?

    Not a normal one, but a spin one (Like 3 lines on the connector Video, sound Left and asound right)

    Cable and adaptors arrived today and they don’t work. Seems that wd have wired the cable different, even though it’s the same connectors/colours.

    I was cheeky and emailed wd and they are sending me one, so @ least i have the scart adaptor already and can leave one cable in my tv and the other one between the other tvs.

    Yes VERY true, I took it as red to red etc and then read on wd forums its to do with the internal wiring. Sure @ least ill have a genuine one as back up.
