omf Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 The wire that goes to pin #16 must be removed first. ok cool, heres my plan: cut off pin 16 solder a 150 ohm resistor to pin 16 and pin 8 with the wire that's already connected to pin 8. this way the cable will auto switch to rgb still will it not? or am i doing something that might cause damage?

Zerosquare Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Pin 8 must be disconnected completely. If you leave it connected it may cause your TV set to switch to 16:9 mode. The TV won't switch to AV mode automatically any more, but RGB mode will be enabled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickcris Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) The wire to pin 8 should stay connected. Here is an example of how it should be wired: http://members.optusnet.com.au/eviltim/gamescart/gamescart.htm#jaguar edit: I read back and zerosquare was saying to do it differently I think with just the wire currently going to pin 8 now attached to pin 16 with a resistor between the wire and pin. Which im sure is fine too. I have mine wired as above, but im connected to an xrgb-mini. The switch I am using expects voltage on pin 8 and 16 though so mine needs to be wired like in the link above.

mickcris Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Disregard my link above if you are connecting directly to a tv as it may still go into 16:9 mode as stated by zerosquare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omf Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 ok, ill cut both wires and use pin 8's wire on 16 with the resistor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
