Even CHEAPER
Thanx this is a really great post.
I was planning on buying a video out cable till i came across this post
.
To hopefully add on to this great thread.....
The original genuine HTC Headphones are very expensive from where I am from they might cost You +50$ and the genuine tv out cable +90$.
To make this very cheap i used:
1) A pair of cheap chinese htc immitation headphones -10$
(sound quality is very bad crackling and the headphones overheat in your ears!! blah blah... cons).
2) An intermediate quality RCA sheild for also -10$.
I cut the RCA cable at one end and pealed off insulation....
obviously...red = audio right
white = audio left
yellow = video out
3x brown = ground for each.
Then I cut the cheap htc compatible headphones right from under the mic....then Surprise!!!!
Wiring is completely different from the Genuine htc headphone cable thought I was screwed...
but with an avometer and some patience here is what I successfully came out with...
A)You will only find five wires all thin insulated
(like a coil wire) no black no white!
B) PINOUT of headphone to usb connector is as follows:
(1) RED wire
(2) BLUE wire
(3) Copper (yellow) wire
(4) PLZ REMOVE PIN FROM USB CONNECTOR and has no corresponding wire.
(5) RED+BLUE twisted wire
(6) GREEN wire
*Please refer to attached usb connector PINOUT image that I burrowed
from somwhere.
C) This is how I wired my RCA....
1- RED to Video +ve
2- BLUE to Audio Right +ve
3- Copper(yellow) to Video -ve
5- RED/BLUE twisted to left and right Audio -ve (audio ground).
6- GREEN to Audio Left +ve
*PLZ REFER to wiring 1 Image I attached below.
