The different plugs on a monitor (CVBS, S-Video, YPbPr, SCART, VGA)
each have different standards associated with them.   The specs do not
list the standardized specs... because they are assumed you will deduce
them from the presence of the plug.   SCART is a defined standard, so
you don't need to worry about the scan rate... any SCART device will
work.

And it just so happens that the IIgs natively puts out "SCART"
compatible video.. and you get the right plug using Roger Johnstone's
cable (a shameless plug for a plug).


<< Given the 910MP model number, would you expect that Samsungs 930MP,
940MP etc models would also be capable of the same?>>

Not here in the USA.. those other models do NOT come with the SCART
connector here.  My theory is that since the 910MP is a lower cost
model, they were able to lower cost by making one unit for worldwide
distribution... thus the fluke of a SCART connector monitor in the USA.
