Nothing on composite video output. [Solved]

[Ludorlive]

Hi, I'm trying to make a retro arcade with this kind of TV

and a cable jack/rca composite.
I went in the /boot/config.txt to enable the right codes like you said in this post https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2371/using-composite-video-can-t-see-everything-on-the-screen but nothing work, even with some custom tweaks and without the HDMI connected of course...
I have a raspberry pi 3 and retropie 4.0 with updates.

Hi @Ludorlive

I have found that not all composite cables are wired the same. On my cable the left audio and video were switched. Have you tried all the connectors in the video in to rule this out?

OMG... Hi five man ! It works... Video out is in the red pin and I passed all day long yesterday to trying f***ing stuffs.

You're welcome, I probably spent about 2 hours on it before I realised that my cable was the "wrong" type. :-D
