The scart connection to a TV provides the best picture as RGB
(Red,Green,Blue separately), but some types of display device don’t have
a scart socket. In this case, either an adaptor should be purchased, or
connect an S-Video lead from the

high quality picture, but you must make a separate audio connection, as
the cable doesn’t carry sound.
