Don't go by their online inventory system, because the cables are often mislabeled as component cables. Just start checking stores in your area. Even if they did, I would shop at any one of a dozen independent stores before I gave the big bad monopoly any business. I recommend against GameStop, or least vote for them to be only the last resort. The latter deals with all kinds of retro stuff but their quality is shit and their selection is worse.
There are no realistic options beyond EB and the big electronics chains. EB Games is now owned by GameStop. They have ceased using the name here in the US, looks like they kept it overseas. I have returned the crap cable and am now considering my options. Quote from: Lawrence on May 15, , PM I have returned the crap cable and am now considering my options. Given that that this is your forum, you should probably purchase a commercial Panasonic plasma, so you get the Oh wait I hate it here.
If we're not talking about a modulated colour signal, why is this important? So it's entirely possible, but then again I just don't know how they are marketing them overseas. Mostly I'd hate to think of the price on them in Australia, especially given the economy lately.
That may be true in Europe, but not in Australia. My options are limited to a very small sampling of the latest models from LG, Samsung or Panasonic. Waterbury BigMember Posts: 97 Logged. Do you have a Radioshack there? That what I did.
I used a shit load of hotglue to keep the cables from shorting. I stole a headphone cable that came from some old speakers to hook into the Aux of my PC speakers. I may upload pics later. No ghosting or artifacts at all, it looks great. Or you could stop being a bitch and give in and just buy an official cable and just play games for a change.
Don't ban me! Strip all the wires and test them until you find the wires that match up to pins 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, and 8. Then move on. Pretty much here is when you solder the connections together. Pin One goes to Red Inside. Pin Six goes to Red Outside. Pin Two goes to Green Inside. Pin Seven goes to Green Outside. Pin Three goes to Blue Inside. Pin Eight goes to Blue Outside.
This is where you hook it up to the computer and stabilize it. The problem being is since not all the wires are hooked up the screen flashes black and should have a green tint. To fix this click the menu button on the screen. Note: The screen has to have an image to access the menu.
Hit the center button on your Xbox controller as this tends to keep it stable long enough. If not contact me and I'll help you. I have made it and get to the green tinted screen, my monitor doesn't have a YPrPb input colour format option, so I would like to know how one would go about doing so.
The solution, probably, would be to connect Vsync and Hsync but the problem is that my connector doesn't have these pins! I have an original xbox AV cable. Anyone else having such a AV cable? Maybe I can try to pick the vsync and hsync directly from xbox mobo?
Would appreciate any help. Reply 6 years ago on Introduction. Apparently, the later models of the av cables don't have all the pins, only the ones necessary for component output. I had the same problem, but i found a diagram of the pinout, and with vga, there are some pins you don't need like many of the ground pins and the optical audio. If you're careful, you can pull the pins out of the connector with a needle-nose pliers and re-insert them into the correct spots.
I had to put pins in the h-sync and v-sync spots. All of your grounds can go to one ground pin, just to save pins, and in fact, I had trouble getting the red to come through at all until i put its ground in with the rest.
Pretty much all you need for vga is the red, green, and blue, and hsync and vsync, and a ground. And left and right audio. All the grounds can, and really should for simplicity's sake go to one ground pin. Alternatively, you can hunt for an older av cable that does have all the pins in it. I've soldered hsync pin 11 , vsync pin 12 and ground pin 2 on motherboard and still get green screen after connecting to LCD.
I would quit whilst you are ahead. I would help out on this, but I'm more into the coding side of things and have little idea how this works. As I have no idea what the hsync and vsync pins do. It was of the worst build quality. Ghosting images all over the monitor Bad shielding I would say. I had all the parts lying around. So, thought I would do it myself.
Initially , I thought that building it myself would mean bad quality. It turned out to be a pretty good after all. Shielding is basically a protective layer over your cables which prevent signal loss. If that is bad, ghosting would be evident.
So, you can try this with any cables.
