Default RCA to HDMI - this simple?

Assuming the composite input is wired correctly of course. there have been
some wierd scarts around in the past.
Are you sure the lead mentioned is not active in some way. I've seen some
very small keyboard adaptors between ps2 and usb, is there power on an hdmi?

to take a look, replaced the fuse and found the screen driver sub board
had over heated - so its scrap.

The good part of that TV was that it had both SCART for the DVB input
and RCA for the camera which watches the front of the house and it was
easy to switch between them. Looking for a replacement, I wasn't able to
match its inputs, but settled on a 1xSCART, 2xHDMI TV. So I now need to
find some means to use an HDMI input via which to feed an RCA from the
camera.

Is it as simple as buying this item on ebay

I thought it was much more complex than that..

I'm sure you are correct. How is a passive lead going to to A to D
conversion?

Why not split the scart input with a scart switch box and a RCA composite
