PS Does anyon know if it's possible to connect an LCD PC monitor
directly to a DVD player? The DVD player is about ten years old and
has an S-video output, plus a scart output and a number of phono
outputs
Not unless the PC monitor has an anlogue input. Either SCART, or
possibly a yellow phono socket for a composite input. Otherwise, use
a cheap laptop computer as a DVD player. I bought one that would do
the job for a fiver from the local car boot sale a couple of weeks
ago.

All PC monitors have analogue input. The issue is scan speeds.

And the sync signals. Will VGA monitors work without the H and V sync
signals on the correct lines?

All of which can be overcome by giving Maplin £160 or so for a
converter box. Or an unknown eBay supplier £60 plus delivery.
