new 43" TV with SCART?
- Thread starter AndyPRK

SCART hasn't been a thing on mainstream TV brands for about 15 years. It died a death with the arrival of LED TV (because they're much thinner), and with the demise of Plasma, and with the growth in HD signal availability and the requirements to keep signals secure.
It's a damned shame because RGB via SCART can look very good, even at 576i SD quality.
You may still find SCART on some much smaller sets from eBay and Amazon, and also some of the Cello brand TVs. They're a bit of a niche market player, trading on the 'made in Britain' idea. IMO, its a bit of a con. Assembling from a kit of parts supplied from China is not the same as makolung from scratch. The performance isn't anything to write home about either.
