HDMI Connection Box to SCART TV

Solved
Verto63 -  
Hello.
I want to connect a Philips TV with only a SCART input to a Freebox Pop via HDMI. I bought a SCART/HDMI converter box. I get a blue screen after trying to adjust the source.
Thank you for your advice.

    Hello, I see a coaxial socket, check if it is an output

      Hello,
      "I bought a SCART/HDMI converter box."
      What you need is an HDMI -> SCART converter, like this one for example:

      Thank you for this response. In fact, the FreePop system consists of 3 units: the server to which the phone line is connected, a Wi-Fi box, and the Player to which the TV is connected. In addition to HDMI, there is surprisingly a coaxial output (or input). So it is indeed possible to connect the TV and Player using this system, but after that, I don’t see how it can work other than via Wi-Fi, which is unfortunately not the case.

    The only way to have sound and image is through the HDMI output of the player + the aforementioned converter
    As for the SPDIF coaxial or optical port, it's an audio output to be connected to a home theater system or hi-fi system

          Problem solved with an HDMI > SCART converter. Picture is less sharp but it's usable.
          Thank you for your advice. Recommended forum.
