Connecting Composite video port to coaxial input in a TV?
-
Hi,
I'd like to know if I can just get a cable that has 3.5mm pin on one end of the cable and a coaxial pin on the other end of the same cable and plug it in a TV. Will it work rought out of the bat, or do I need some sort of adapter, for the signal to be converted so it can be used in a TV?thanks.

@maksi They make 3.5mm to composite video cables (composite is the red/white/yellow cable)... but if you want to use an even older tv with only coaxial input, you're going to need an RF modulator to take the composite signal and modulate it into an RF signal via coaxial output.

I use something similar to this to hook my pi to an old wood grain tv with a single coaxial input, but there are hundreds of different brands.
