@TEK Nemesis No the design should still be there. Just added my front underglow led stripes so it might have been temporily unavaylable while i uploaded the other file. Should work fine now i just tested the link! There's now also a Panel full of 1.6 LPC rebuild PCBs and the mentioned front underglow PCBs for anyone interested.

Got a few more built up so there are a few more up for for sale now!

Lol, no business ruined i wouldn‘t throw out the shematic and stuff if i wanted to make a business of it. @TEK Nemesis Your free to ask someone to make a design or draw one up yourself. Just an offer from my side for people who are lazy or like my design.

I added the link so people can order my Design if they wan‘t to but i‘m not really interested in putting out the Gerber files. You can of course design your own boards and order wherever you want. This is just an offer. And ~160 Xerc2 boards per order is a lifetime supply anyway. Your decision

Since the Sickmods site has vanished i thought it might be worth saving the information from there open source projects. Having a backup of the user manual, source code and the shematic can't hurt. So here are the files for anyone who wants to build a couple Xerc2s. And for anyone who wants to build them i uploaded my panelized Layout here: Xerc2 Panelized Have fun building and using the Xerc2 ir mod! Xerc2 Firmware.zip XERC2XE-UsersManual.pdf

I‘m with @OGXbox Admin the rev1.5 doesn‘t exist! I once thought i had seen one BUT it was just my mind playing a trick on me. The rev1.4 registers in XBMC (or was it the AID?) as rev 1.4/1.5... long story short i looked for that old board and even found it ... and it is of course a rev1.4.

@KaosEngineer Both the TOTX178 and TOTX178A should work fine.

My hdmi mod does have 3 solder pads that are properly marked to connect the corresponding pins of the tx178. You just need to mount it to the case and connect it to the hdmi mod with 3 wires and your done.

@Blobby85 Already answered your private message. Your Tv probably tries to decode the multi-channel audio as stereo and therfore fails. You can try changing the Audio settings in XBMC. If your TV doesn’t accept 5.1 over hdmi you can disable the 5.1 aufio and have stereo sound instead.

@KunfuMunky Yes i have sold a few of those boards already. When i do have one ready i will post it on here. I currently simply don‘t have a complete board and i don‘t have the time to build one either.
-
@TEK Nemesis Yes the green marked area between the 2 adapter boards should be insulated.
-
@AkaAnonymous Yes i do ship to the US. I'll drop you a quick pm in a minute.

This HDMI mod replaces the AV port completely and offers an HDMI port instead for convenience. The Installed HDMI mod does look like this: The HDMI mod does offer 5.1 sound through the HDMI port. If you don't need 5.1 (or your TV might not support it) you can simply disable 5.1 audio and get digital stereo audio instead. For those who want to add an optical output to there Xbox the HDMI mod does offer 3 solder points to add a TOTX178 optical transmitter. To get the HDMI mod installed you first need to get the AV-port removed. To get it removed you could either use a hot-air station or a heat-gun to remove it at once. But that would put a lot of thermal stress on the board! The better and recommended alternative is to disassemble the Port and remove it one part at a time. First desolder the Metal Tab holding it in place by heating them and prying the metal tab up to pull it out. When the metal tab is removed take a sidecutter and clip off all the pins from the video port as they are what keeps the Port in place. When they are clipped off you can take the port cover off by simply pulling it upwards. Next step is to remove the remaining plastic piece and desolder the rest of the pins and clean up the area a little. Position the first Adapter exactly as show in the photo. The red arrow marks the PTH that has to be alligned centered. Once Positioned solder all the marked points down and make sure they are properly connected before continuing with the second adapter! After soldering all the necessary points insulate the 2 soler points shown in green. A piece of kapton tape works well. You should do this to be sure there's no unwanted connection occuring between the 2 adapter pcbs. Next up is the second adapter. Just position it above the first adapter using the 2 big holes to allign them and solder down the marked points. Again check continuity before continuing with the next PCB! Last PCB is the HDMI mod itself. You need to position it slightly off centered on the second PCB. The HDMI ports pins will be position it correctly. Just solder down the points that are marked with the red arrows and the install is almos done! Last up is setting the Video mode. You need to add 2 small bridges on the bottom side of the PCB. Just solder in the 2 bridges and the video mode is set correctly! If you want to use the optical out you can easily add a toslink port to the HDMI mod by simply soldering a Transmitter to the 3 marked pins.

@neighbor You can order the PCBs from DirtyPCBs.
