Will this lead work with a TurboR or a HB700F? I want to connect to a non-SCART monitor, the seller tells me that it will work with any MSX with a DIN output

First of all, ¿how many pins has the DIN?, it must be 8, if not it isn't a F700/TR video cable.
I've a Sony F700 and a TurboR and IIRC both can use the same DIN/SCART cable; but about using the composite video signal (pin 4), the MSX hardware page states:
Quote:
| The Sony F700 and Sanyo Wavy only put a composite sync signal (no complete video, only synchronisation signals) on pin 4, where the Turbo-R seems to put a complete composite video signal on this pin. An RGB monitor only uses this to extract the synchronisation signals, and therefore either composite sync, or composite video will do.
|
So seems that only the TurboR can give a full composite signal through the DIN.
Hope this helps  |

This cable does not work on a sony or turbo-R
The sony 700 gives only a black/white signal by using the AV-connector
I have seen cable before with 4 cinch connectors and you can use that on commodore and MSX.
You only have to search 2 connectors you need.
It is an old tape cable to the reciever and you can use that for computers too, becouse all pins are used
The original is left/right in and left/right out.
But this cable has only 3 cinch connectors which look like audio left/right and video (yellow)
