Connect the HDMI out from your set-top box to the HDMI socket of your HDTV.

You were thinking of buying a new tv but the one you want doesnt have a scart plug input so you were wondering if using a scart to usb converter and plugging that into the tv would work?

Scart connectors are a European video and audio standard for analog video signals. They have been commonly used as links between video recorders and televisions as they provide a single wire interface between the two. The signals used in a scart connector vary but they can include composite, S-video, RGB and component video. All of them are analog signals. Most new televisions do not offer scart connectors but the signals are almost always available on alternative inputs. Composite will usually have a single yellow phono socket (RCA socket), component will have three phono sockets S-video will have a 4 pin mini-din socket for example. There are a range of scart adaptor cables that have a scart plug at one end and separate video and audio connectors at the other. Select the type that is needed and it should all work fine. To answer the question specifically, a scart to USB adaptor sounds like a video capture device for use in a computer and is not the right thing to use in a television, even if the television has USB sockets.

Can HDMI convert to component video?

You cannot convert one to the other. HDMI is digital, and has built-in Digital Rights Management (copy protection). Component is analog and has no protection. Some upper model surround receivers can 'up convert' component to HDMI, but will not allow HDMI sources to play on a TV with only component video inputs.


Are 3 jack component video and S video types of connections one can use to connect a DVD player to a television?

Component video and S-video are 2 types of connectors, although S-Video and Component connections are from TV's and DVD players quickly, in favor of HDMI connections. All new models of DVD players made after December 31, 2010 will only output Standard Definition video from the component outputs. 720p, 720i and 1080i will not be offered as output options on new models of DVD players. Note that neither of these connection types send the audio from the DVD player to the TV. You will need analog or digital audio connectors for that.
