This just goes to show that you get what you pay for! Sure the set is cheap, but once you buy the six additional pieces of equipment you need to make it do what you need it to do, it wasn't such a good deal after all.I would recomend returning the apple TV and purchase the one you really want. Hope you saved the reciept! I would assume that the price had a lot to do with your purchase. This just goes to show that you get what you pay for!

It is the european version of component video, but not compatible. I also blame the CRT TV makers, because it is almost impossible to figure out what scart version they use. My Sony CRT has 3 scart connectors, but only one is true RGB, but doesn't sync on green, so it is worthless. The other are supporting only a composite s-video. Component video is not digital only HDMI is. For the different Plug and other headache TV standards take a look at Wikipedia ...

I'm heartened to hear that you're happy with your plasma; it might be time to trade in the old CRT. It’s a widescreen SD television.
