Is it possible to play DVDs with a TV that does not have a SCART connector?

[ugly_bob]

yes. through your normal aerial socket, just like a video

Most new DVD players don't have an RF (aerial) output. You would need to get hold of an RF modulator, but make sure that it is the correct TV standard, and has inputs that your DVD player supports.

You may be better off buying a new TV .

didn't realise that Tim - just bought a new DVD writer that has RF out

The TV might have a composite video input, in which case all you need is the appropriate SCART to phonos converter lead.

I'd say the majority of DVD players DON'T have a RF output.

You should be able to If you've got a VCR with SCART. Connect your DVD to your VCR via SCART turn your VCR on to channel AV1 (or if your VCR has two SCART sockets you might have AV2 as an option) switch your TV on to your video channel and touch wood you should be able to watch it that way. If not like Catso said you can buy a lead with SCART at one end & 3 phono's at the other end (Red,White & Yellow) your TV might have 3 colour coded phono jacks in them plug your SCART into your DVD & the 3 phonos into your TV even if your TV has only got a Yellow & Red or Yellow & White just plug in the corresponding colours it just means your sound will be mono not stereo.
