Follow this thread, because I& #39;m going to be dropping some truth bombs.
Whether you used fixed gain video drivers or do it how NEC/Hudson did, there& #39;s more to getting proper composite video out of a PC-E/TG16 than plugging an RCA cable into the expansion slot. That& #39;s bbbaaaaaad!

1) I& #39;ve seen guides and even products from companies such as @Hyperkin which passively connect to the rear expansion port of the TG16/PC-E with RCA jacks for composite video.
COMPOSITE VIDEO OFF OF THE EXPANSION PORT IS NOT SUITABLE TO INTERFACE DIRECTLY TO A TV! PERIOD!

2) The "CVBS" you& #39;re getting off of the expansion pin is a "muxxed", unattenuated version of composite video which interleaves the luma, chroma, and sub-carrier signals into one, codified signal. This muxxing is done OUTSIDE of the DAC. But that doesn& #39;t make it "TV" friendly.
Everything in this picture represents what& #39;s in every PC-E console (minus the portables)
Pins 26, 35, and 40 are chroma, colorburst, and luma outputs. These are weighted, mixed and staged, all the way to R11 where they& #39;re muxed into a single, codified signal & output 2 the exp.

This is the crucial part that& #39;s missing.
This is the final staging amplifier that is required to properly drive the muxxed, composite video to a proper amplitude with PROPER impedance control and PROPER DC rejection.
You HAVE TO HAVE THIS SHIT. @Hyperkin, I& #39;m talking to you.

Let& #39;s take this baby a part and see if Hyperkin are actually doing proper analysis whilst designing these things.
Surprise, surprise.
No, they didn& #39;t. Neither video OR audio are being transmitted properly, much less even terminated properly!!!!!!
I would say this is unbelievable, but it isn& #39;t.

So many "Youtubers" have either blocked me or banned me because I point out things like this.
I will never back down from this. It& #39;s not right, PERIOD.
@Hyperkin - What is the fucking deal with this? Have you not an engineer who even looks at this shit? C& #39;mon, guys.

"It& #39;s composite video, nobody cares."
Fuck you and that is absolute bullshit. I care. Tons of people care. Tons of people don& #39;t give a fuck about high fidelity video.
Plus, The HU6260 (PC-E/TG16) generates the BEST LOOKING COMPOSITE VIDEO YOU& #39;LL EVER SEE. It& #39;s AWESOME!
