Two video leads are required for connecting up the Domesday System.

The first is a 6-pin DIN RGB lead, like those used with Cub monitors. This connects from the BBC RGB port to the TTL input at the back of the laserdisc player.

The second is a full SCART lead which connects from the laserdisc player to the monitor. You will need a full SCART lead (ie. all pins present and wired straight-through) but you don't need anything spectacular. I got this Philips 4-star rated lead brand-new from ASDA for less than £3.00.

The picture above dates from November 2006 and the actual video leads used in my Domesday Machine changes with each incarnation, depending on what's to hand at the time!
