Gp2x Tv Out Question

[FabreNZ]

I heard that some kind of adapter was needed for TV Out on the GP2X. Are they just talking about a cable? If so, what kind of cable? Is it just a 3.5mm Stereo > 2xRCA cable like some digital cameras use?

I think someone said they were told by a friend who heard that it was an S-Video + Audio-out.

Therefore I absolve myself of any responsbility if I'm wrong.

Has TV-Out been confirmed as being S-Video?

Yes

But I also can recall Craig telling us it has.

It will most likely use a custom adaptor though, as the gp2x is too thin to have a normal port, it will be a camcorder style one.

Mmmm... How is the camcorder style?
Somebody can put a example photo or link to this that shows this one style to know how it is, please

Un Saludo.

But will it be a extra you have to buy, or will it be included?

 

[Dryer Lint]

I was wondering about that as well.
What is in the box? USB-cable and S-Video cable? Possibly more?

AFAIK the video cable is a seperate item, and we don't know the price yet.

I really hope the cable will come in the box. At least have it be something I can go to radioshack and get one for like 5 bucks.

The connector may be one of those RCA type ports you sometimes see on laptops. Just like the yellow cable found together with the white and red for audio. However, I don't know if that's really S-Video so it may be some other type.
