7 PIN DIN input at back of 10-year (?) old Hitachi CPT2478
Hi,
I have a 10-year old Hitachi CPT2478 TV. This gives a sharp but warm image and has an unobtrusive cabinet that means it still matches current "tastes". Now, I have bought a new (but inexpensive) VCR that has a cluster of output and input options including RF (aerial) "Phono" Scart The Hitachi only has two inputs, RF and a "7 PIN DIN" (one of those circular plugs with a "ring of pins" much used by Philips in the 70's and 80's). Does anyone know what the specification or description of the plug is? Is this 7-pin a video and audio input (I can't see what else it would be !!)? Can I buy a standard cable that will take the Scart / "phono" from the video and input it into this socket? What I am trying to achieve is an improvement on the (not bad) quality of the signal / image from the VCR over that achieved through the TV RF input. The RF TV input would remain in place for "non-video output" signal, in other words "standard TV". To restate, the aim is to get a cable from the VCR scart / phono into the TV 7-pin DIN. Thanks Clive |
