Just upgraded from HD to a q box so now have no scart port. I have an older dvd/surround sound system that has no hdmi, only scart. How do I connect this to skyq box.

Hi @Karamayb123
You could try using a converter such as follows.
However quality of Scart is far inferior to HDMI and you really should consider upgrading your surround sound system
Edit
there still may be issues with HDCP copy protection and so no guarantees

Is there any chance that it has an optical audio input ?
