Parents bought new tv this week, I went so set it up but found they still have old style Sky box with scart lead connections, new tv however has HDMI.
is it possible to buy an adapter to concert scart to HDMI or do they need new sky box?? Ta
Scart is analog and hdmi digital, so a new box would be in order, really.
If they have a sky subscription then I don't see why you should have to pay for a new box, kick off until they give you a free one as Scart is an ancient interface. Might be a time to review what package they are on too, as they might be getting robbed blind on that.
Push for a new box especially if the subscription is out of date.
No point having old SKY with current HD TV- it won't look good with a converter - that's a really old Sky box without a HDMI though.
It won't look good, SD on a HD TV. Especially if it's more than 37".
As others have said push for a new box.
As a stop gap, you could possibly use the component video connections. My Panasonic TV has a component video adaptor, to allow the 3 , red, green and blue cables to connect to a single jack plug. Better quality than scart, still not HDMI. However, as it's an analogue connection, will probably give better results than trying to convert it to a digital signal through a cheap convertor.
Does the sky box have component connections?
To answer the question asked, yes -

But like everyone else says, I'm not sure you'd want to.
