Question about the Sony PVM-20M2MDU Monitor.

[sicbud]

Hello everyone,

This is my first post here, so I hope I'm asking this in the right forums. I wanted to get into hooking up my consoles using SCART, so I just purchased a Sony PVM-20M2MDU Monitor and had a couple of questions.

What is the best way to get SCART connected to this monitor? I'm a complete noob when it comes to this stuff, so I'm really not sure what I need to purchase. Would it be best to purchase a VGA to 5 BNC RGBHV cable, then the SyncStrike? I'm a little confused when looking at the BNC cable though, because the monitor (from what I can see) has four BNC connectors for component and one for audio; however, the cable has 5 bnc connectors, so how would I go about hooking that up?

Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated!

Here is an easy diagram:


This is what I use
Wii Gamestation brand RGB SCART/Snakebyte Playstation RGB SCART/QED SCART>SCART switch>SCART to RGBS Female RCA>RCA to BNC Cables>PVM



The SCART switch has separate Stereo out which I use to connect Creative T20 Series 2 speakers.

You don't need a sync strike with the 20M2MDU. Also it takes composite sync (H and V on one wire) so RGBHV won't work without re-combining the syncs.

Scart TV's use composite video for sync, and lucky for you, the 20M2MDU can as well.

Hit up "Broken" on the neo-geo forums, he has female scart -> BNC breakout cables that work perfectly with these PVMs.
