Thanks Ed :)

is it the technique used in he Alice 4k ?  the alice 4k Uses a lot of 
transistors to convert
the signal from the 6847 into RGB  (it is more complex it also convert 
525 lines to 625 lines)

I'm using the same scart to hdmi  not perfect but works well

It basically turns the r-y b-y into RGB. Then I run it into a scart to hdmi converter. The picture is of 1080i output. Check it out."
