Quick Guide For High Def Output
« Reply #45 on: June 12, 2004, 06:57:00 AM »
since its hard to come by specific electronic parts where i live, i had to salvage a optical out module from a old technics cd deck. The problem i have with it is that it has 4 pins insted of 3. I installed it anyway with coaxial out. The coaxial out works fine, but the optical doesnt. is anyone familiar with this 4th pin? Cheers.

As I had said in the Optical note in the diagram, only 3 types of TOSLINK Optical Jacks will work for the XBox signal.  The 4 pin Optical Jack you have will not work for the XBox.

Jared:

Would it be possible to also add signal labels for each line to the diagram as well? Well, maybe not on the line itself, but by where you have them connected to each component...

So a +, -, Y+, Y-, C+, C-
Looking at the picture, I'm assuming that the line in the center of the coax audio, components, and composite connectors is the "+" signal, and the line to the left is the ground.

It just makes it easier for those that like to follow signals->components, instead of drawings showing where something should be hooked up, especially if working with non-standard looking components.

Your diagram is by far the easiest to follow - I've had trouble with some of the other text listings since it's hard to tell which way they number the pins and whatnot. Anyway, if you can add signal labels, that would be great.

I can't get too specific for the labeling, because most of the outputs have more than one signal.  I did, however, show which was +, and which was -.

Jared:

Thanks for the update... Now I guess it's time to plan out the mod...

On your S-Video picture, is this how you have the connections showing (left->right)?:
C-, C+, Y+, Y-
or am I looking at it from the wrong side?
Basically - are we looking at a female connector with the connections on the reverse side? That's what I would imagine and would be the most obvious, but just wanted to get it clarified (you know how some people have their diagrams - can't be too sure).

EDIT:
Your VGA connector diagram has the ordering from left->right which would be for the male connector (although female would be the better choice when used on the box)... I guess that's why I need to confirm which side of the S-Video connector we're looking at.

Correct on the S-Video, as well as the others.  You are looking at the front of the connector, with the connections on the back.  I was unaware that the VGA was shown using a Male connector, as I got the diagram from L33.  VGA is now changed to a Female connector.

Been working with M$ Paint for years now... takes a while to get it just how you want it, but I think I've mastered the technique cool.gif.

Hehehehehe

All 16 of it's toolbar functions, eh?  I'm still impressed; I guessed that you used Visio for the diagram.
