    Connecting Sky+ box directly to an LCD screen?

    Hi all

    I would like to connect a Sky+ box to view freeview satellite channels directly up to a dell 2005fpw LCD screen

    the dell screen has the following inputs/outputs:

    VGA

    DVI

    S-Video

    is it possible to get one of those scart to composite connectors like this:

    RGB Scart to Composite RCA+S-Video Audio AV TV Adapter on eBay (end time 23-Jun-10 16:34:54 BST)

    connect the s-video line of that directly into the s-video line of the monitor, and hook up my speakers separately to the outputs from the scart adapter?

    with thanks

    Now sorted

    if anyone stumbles across this:

    I managed to get the sky box working with my dell 2005fpw LCD panel using a straightforward s-video to s-video cable between box and lcd screen, works straightforward.

    only caveat is that obviously speakers need to be connected externally

    enjoy!
