Title: TG16 AV mod
Post by: Official Ninja on September 11, 2013, 02:46:04 AM: Nothing special, but I AV modded a TG-16. I grabbed V,L,R,G from under the board where the 69 pin connector is.
Works really good!

Have no use for Svideo really. I don't even have many TVs that have Svid inputs anymore.

I used this link for the pins. Just find where they are on the bottom of the board. You'll need to unsolder or bend the shielding back (I bent it back). Then its a simple task of drill holes and soldering the wires to the rca jacks.

Hey, if you do it post pics. It's always interesting to see how mods turn out. Even simple ones.
