  1. That is true it not difficult...I assume. But I think the thing that might scare ppl the most besides the soldering aspect is making sure you solder the right connections together. Especially if you accidently solder to the 5V pin I'm sure that won't be pleasant.

     

    I still have to find a 'decent' place that sells the 24-pin connector...yea I know you can 'modify' a floppy drive connector but that's too annoyingly complicated. I'd rather pay $5 for the part.

     

     

     

    There really is nothing difficult to making a cable or even adapter. Just hunt down some 24 pin edge cards or even 48 pin and cut them in half and there is your plug. Fairly cheap.

     

    The only issue really isnt the parts or the details its that most people for what ever reason find soldiering a turn off.

     

    Good videos btw congrats on the work you put into them


  2. Thanks Zerosquare!

     

    If anyone has anything else to add that would be great! The more resources the better. I could prolly come up with a fail-safe guide on how to make these....and variations of the cables....A/V, S-Video, A/V & S-Video combo.

     

    Heck, maybe even a female A/V and S-Video input to the Jaguar...aka a cheap catbox even? ;-)


  3. Hey everyone!

    I recently bought a S-video & A/v Combo cable for my Atari Jaguar. Once I got it, I figured if I made my own it would be way less expensive then the $35 I spent on the cable.

     

    I have found a few sites to help with creting your own cable:

    Some youtube videos:

    Does anyone on here happen to have links to how to actually make these cables or where to buy the parts?

     

     

    I figured this post would be nice for those wanting to hook up their Atari Jaguar to a HDTV for cheap :-)

    Any insight would be great!
