Hi all,

I've got a really old Portable Sony Trintrion from 1971. It is a colour TV, but unfortunately I haven't been able to get colour output over RF into it it just stays as black and white.

I know nothing is wrong with the TV as my VCR displays in full colour when hooked in over RF. However, I was going to use one of those RGB-SCART adapters for my Beeb hook it into the back of my VCR and the RGB port on the back and hopefully get colour image into my TV that way with the VCR hooked into the TV via RF.

Would there be any issue in doing this? would it even work into the back of my VCR? Its a 2004 Panasonic Model

If not I'm thinking about buying one of the MicroVitec CUBs for it instead.
