Is scart now defunct? Does new equipment still use it?

The poms seem to use it but I was having a talk with a group of friends
and no one had heard of scart.

Prick of a design, flimsy and no way of locking it in, particularly bad if
you have a fat, heavy cable attached.
It is still used on virtually every analogue video device on sale in Europe.

everyone just uses the RCA sockets.
I remember some of the TEAC TV's a decade or so back would use this as
the only form of AV input, and these sets wouldn't stay on the AV
"channel" when you turned the power on/off.
IIRC you had to pull one pin to a 3 or 12 v ? voltage in order to
externally force AV mode.
For that matter, does anything use DIN plugs anymore - like were on
most HIFI gear in the 70's ?

It is still used on European TVs. My new Loewe Art still has a Scart
connector and I use it. The Loewe apparently uses it to convey control

any analogue transmitters anymore.
There are still millions of analogue TVs in circulation that would be scrap
without a SCART (Peritel connector) to hook them up to a Freeview or other
STB.

We're most of the way through digital switchover so most areas no don't have
any analogue transmitters anymore.

Fortunately most have RCA inputs for AV, or we would have the same
problem. Also have seen STB's here (Hills) that have an inbuilt RF
modulator for use with older sets with no analog input.
I won't be replacing any sets while they keep working.

I seem to remember that you had to short 2 pins on the interface, I had

Haven't seen them for years except in the bins at Jaycar.For that matter, does anything use DIN plugs anymore - like were on
