      I was thinking does anyone know the connections of it on the back of the board,like Video,GHD Left and right,where the headphone connector is soldered on the back,if we can find out where the points are we could solder your own connector on it or a cable to it.

        I had a old set of headphones for my S4 moblie phone so I cut the end off and soldered the wires to it,
        .....4......3..... 2.......1
        Video GHD Left Right

        And it works fine the only problem is the sound is low and you get a buzz in the sound.

        Heres a pic..

            Hardware problem. Apparently audio_pwm_mode=2 fixes it but i haven't tried it yet.
