    I have the same SCART>HDMI box you're using and I had the exact same problem. The good news is that I was able to get everything working; the bad news (depending on your skill level) is that I had to modify my SCART cable. This post from Zerosquare provided me with the solution I was looking for.

     

    Here's what I wound up doing (see attached pic):

    1. Disconnected the wire on pin 16 and tucked it to the side (in case I ever want to undo the mod)
    2. Connected a 150 ohm resistor to pins 8 and 16.

     

    I consider my soldering skills to be slightly above "shamefully embarrassing" but I was able to pull this off. Just be gentle after you remove the plastic cover on the SCART connector; some of the wires look like they could easily break off if they were bent or snagged.
