Pin out for composite video and S-Video?

[Irene]

Just wait... time will tell.

The Fat Four already have told, seems they knew him: http://www.lyricsondemand.com/b/beatles ... yrics.html

I have placed an order on the Hauppauge Impact VCB (85€ including shipping)... it should be in the mail after 2 or 3 days. I have also printed the PCB layout now, it is soon time for etching it, after that I will see at Radio Shack for parts that I need (resistors, PICs, etc).

About the audio, well after some further research and tweaking I made my own homebrew analog RCA audio to digital RCA audio adapter. I unmounted an ADC (Cirrus Logic CS5345) from my CMI8768 sound card and soldered the ADC onto a custom PCB. After soldering three RCA connectors to the PCB and connected all ground sources, I combined the two analog RCA audio sources into one and finally programmed the ADC to resample the data to 24-bit 48000Hz in the S/PDIF format. After some testing it worked pretty nicely, and the ADC delivered perfect audio to my Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 4. I will get a plastic case for this adapter soon, so it will look much better ^_^

I really did not believe that circuits and electric engineering would be of some interest to me, but after I discovered the possibility to make my own PCBs I not only bought solder, but all other stuff just for fun ^O^

Cheers,

Isn't she perfect or what?

...What doesn't seem perfect at all are all those pointless posts that add nothing to the cause but hate and boredom.


Back on topic, I don't know if you ever worked with electronics and soldering but you should read on a few of the basics before starting to work on your project, just to get things right and not start with the wrong foot (cold joints are bad for instance!).

Please keep us posted on the outcome.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if you happen to get this right in the first run

Superadnim my father taught me the basics of electric engineering, of course I have made something the wrong way. For example I remember when I shorted a +3.3V point on my GameCube controller. Making cable shield contact the data line is also not nice ^_^

Nah, I am not perfect, just weird ^O^
Hihi, someone should give me a "PureWoman" status ^.^

Composite video, and S-Video is two different animals. The latter carries the signals as separate channels (brightness/color),
composite is, well, composite/all combined, so I don't think you will be able to translate it into into s-video by changing the
pinout only.

You are right on that. It is not only the pin out that matters. I already have put an order for a Y/C signal separation circuitry. I have made my homework ^.^

I'm sitting in austria right now, stepped over a nice open wlan connection from the hotel beside

I'm just here to say 4 words: you pussies :O

Except you dare.. and infobytes of course. and fluid byte.. and sunsation.. and blueznl. and doubledutch. and srod. and lucifer. and everybody else i forgot except harff and irene

Oh, Mr. Pussyboy has forgotten a part from our agreement! You surely do not want that I send the pictures of you to everyone on the forum where you, you know... on the street with... you know that thing and and... Should I go on Mr. Pussyboy?

Peace (to everyone except thefool),

i'd like to see that pic myself, thank you

Unpeace to all. War rules

7 reasons to ignore you:
1. Ignorant.
2. Arrogant.
3. Pessimistic.
4. Unrealistic.
5. Annoying.
6. Cheater.
7. Everything else.

I will give you a hint to the picture though: there is a guy that resembles you, with only underwear, on the street and a banana in your hand. No other hints though. Figure it out on your own, and for everyone's sake I really do not know why I have the picture.

Peace (to everyone except thefool),
Irene

[thefool]

you don't have any pics of me.

1. Ignorant.
2. Arrogant.
3. Pessimistic.
4. Unrealistic.
5. Annoying.
6. Cheater.
7. Everything else.

im not ignorant, pessimistic, unrealistic, annoying, cheating or anything else.
Im slightly arrogant to jerkoffs like yourself though i'll give you that.

And here i was thinking you were one of the good ones
Obviously i'm dead wrong.

and btw: i hope you're not threatening me with that pic stuff, because thats kinda childish you know.. Like im offensive or anything and you get here doing all that sort of bullshit.

[Irene]

Nothing to read here...

[thefool]

I made you taste your own medicine. Also, before Berikco edits this post I really wanted to say that you should shut the fuck up and get yourself a fucking thing to do on your own without fucking annoying me!

I CAN'T HEAR YOU

well i got enough to do. Originally i got here to find some information about DSP coding and where i really put the stuff i placed somewhere, but heck i thought i'd just swing in an annoy you on the run since you've been so fucking evil at me. Payback time

It can't be a coincidence that it's valantines day

Hello!

I have been looking for a composite video (yellow RCA jack) to S-Video converter/adapter, but have not found any products that convert composite video to S-Video (as opposed to S-Video to composite video) or products that ship to Finland.

I have that plug, it came with an old graphics card I have, only about 10cm long. I've never seen it in a shop though and when I asked about it once (as I lost it in the bottom of a cable draw when I needed it) people said that there was no such cable. I found it again the other month. I hate s-video, the quality looks worse to me, I expected not to notice any difference.

I'm willing to trade! Let me post a pic of it when I get home. You still need it or did you manage to make it?

Thats what people in the shop kept saying, looking at me like I was an idiot for expecting such a cable to exist...

And yet I have it, and have used it!

Here's a picture of it. Perhaps we are talking about different things, maybe this is lossy or doesn't send all the picture quality through that's possible with svid (not that I've ever found s-vid to be any good)

Looks here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-video#Overview like you can merge them (a+b)
