I would like to get hold of a mac mini and connect it to my lcd tv. Unfortunately my tv only has a scart connection. Anyone done this or know of a way I could do it?

Here is a URL explaining the Scart Connection.

I have no idea as this is the first time I have seen that connector.

Edit, this should work as the Minis all are native DVI.

I've just contacted them, and they say this adapter will work only if my mac mini and tv will work with analogue signals over these ports!! Anyone know what this means?

Well, I do know with the included adapter the Mini will work with normal VGA monitors. I saw the Analog part also. Not sure but will check around. That adapter is not cheap.

Check this thread. They seem to have the answer.
