* I only had a spare twin AV cable at the time, so my cable is mono only, but you should be able to follow what's going on and adapt it to a 3 way AV cable (video, left audio, right audio)

^ I mentioned it as the start of my tutorial. :)

I ripped up the only spare RCA cable I had which happened to be a twin cable for the sake of putting together a simple tutorial. Pretty easy to follow what's going on and add the second audio channel with a 3 way RCA cable.

I did a quick write-up of it somewhere else, here it is in a nutshell.

* I only had a spare twin AV cable at the time, so my cable is mono only, but you should be able to follow what's going on and adapt it to a 3 way AV cable (video, left audio, right audio)

Grab some cheap AV cables and strip one of the ends. Separate the ground wires.



Pinch some header pin plugs from an old PC and attach to the stripped end of your AV cable. Finish up with a dab of solder and some heat shrink.



Connect them to the rear expansion port of your console as follows:



R = Right Audio
L = Left Audio
V = Video
G = Grounds



Enjoy:




Nice photos to accompany each step .

This is great. My US Duo is temporarily down for the count. So this will be handy to play my US TG-16 until I S-video mod it. Then again, I only have 4 US HuCards and 20 PC-Engine ones. I would be better off just waiting, but am definitely doing the S-video and AV cable mod later on.
