I am not convinced that this will work.

Firstly the converter box is hdmi to component (not composite) or VGA, neither of which can be transmitted over SCART.

Secondly the 'phono to RGB scart' that you selected has scart as the input and RGB phono outputs.  It can do nothing with 'component' signals and is converting in the wrong direction anyway.

Perhaps others will chip in with a better solution, but an hdmi to composite converter may be a better solution, albeit with reduced quality.  In addition, you possibly need to make sure that whatever you use is hdcp compliant (although I am not sure whether the V6 output includes hdcp - perhaps it does for some content.)

I am sure that someone else can help!

Maybe this one or similar could do the job

I used one of these for my HDMI only FireTV to my BV5  Login to view image

And one of these to connect to the TV via the scart

All from Amazon. It worked brilliantly.

I'm currently using it with my Beocenter 1 TV and FireTV. 

PS. You need to ensure any converter is HDMI in and not HDMI out as my first purchase was the wrong way. You need to check it with the scart adapter too as they can also be in or out. The one I have has a switch on top the says IN/OUT .

PPS.  Just seen this which negates the scart adapter above

Try this one.It worked with my old BV3

Hi Alll,

Yes - these will work - but I want to avoid Composite video ( the yellow, CVBS) in favour of the (better) RGB component video signal. 

I know that RGB out on digiboxes via a scart - scart cable is better quality , so looking to keep this picture improvement in the HDMI to scart conversion.

So the connection will be  digibox > HDMI - SCART ( RBG) > TV    -        rather than digibox > HDMI - SCART (CVBS) > TV , if that makes sense.

Sorry but I still don't think that converter box will work.  It outputs component as opposed to RGB.  A component signal is not transmitted over SCART.

See the questions below the produce description:

Question:  Will this work as hdmi to RGB SCART?

Answer: No it won't work as HMDI to RGB Scart, its only HDMI to VGA / HDMI to Component cables

I'm unsure, as component and  RGB seems to be interchangeable terms - and I know for a fact that the   Pb, Pr, Y  outputs on early DVD players and SKY boxes ( as pictured above) work into the RGB enabled scart sockets on the avant chassis ( which is what the BV5 MK1 is, for AV inputs).

Fingers crossed.

Hi

I tried this converter to feed my Avant 32 RF MKII two months ago: https://www.amazon.com/Musou-Component-Converter-Adapter-Coaxial/dp/B01F6URXYY It has Component Video (YPbPr) output. Avant has component RGB input. I was unable to get picture. 

My understanding was that both are component signals, but different anyway. RGB is red, green and blue computer convention. YPbPr is luminance, difference between blue and luminance and difference between red an luminance and is a broadcast convention.
