Question about component and RGB mods for the Duo

[bishopcruz]

I know these exist, but I am curious, after the system has been modded for component or RGB, can you still output in composite if you need to? For example, I have tube TV that only has composite, and my regular flatscreen that has component. After the mods, could I switch my Duo from one TV to the other?

Yes, the standard composite out is not affected by doing an RGB, Component, or S-video modification. So that standard composite is still good for regular use.

I also use din-8 connector for my component video mods I do. Keeps it looking stock plus it keeps the native composite video.

Looks good, I might hit you up in the next month or so for that component mod, I just found out my TV DOES handle 240p, and it looks GLORIOUS (well for not having an XGRB or something similar). Very excited to see how the Duo would look on my screen with that. For the cable, do I look for a Din-8 component cable?

There isn't one that I know off, I custom make my own din8 to rca component cable.

Ah, cool.

I swear I read about some of the mods you guys do one these boards and it seems like wizardry.
