I bought more 2 xbox's and not working with these also Only on my X3 1.6. Maybe something different with PSU?

I bought an 1.6 xecuter X3 xbox and strange is that this adapter works with this xbox without issues and not with my other 1.6 and 1.4 with replaced caps.

Hi, its me again Yesterday I desoldered the adapter from AV port and replaced many caps what I hadn't replaced before. The picture is super clean and sharp. XBMC4Gamers is very clean, no noise that I can see and all that in 720p. I played "Enter the Matrix" in 720p like an hour. All super fine. But started "Vice City" it all went south again The adapter still doesn't like bellow 720p.

Ok, I tested it with another TV and still the same. I replaced many smaller caps on motherboard BUT NOOOO..... Now I blame the adapter itself If I win a lottery I'll buy XboxHD+ but before that happens I'll make a DIY component cable from xbox360's one.

Everything working fine with component cable. I was thinking that maybe HDMI part of the TV is not working great with 480/480p

It had plastic case. I don't have any of those to try. I soldered extra gnd and 5V wires but still the same. I desoldered cables from the adapter and soldered it to directly to AV port pins with shielded wires. The image is crisp almost no interference. What I noticed. When I'm in 720p everything is fine. Dash is fine, XBMC4Games is fine and even I can play games(The Warriors 720p) BUT STRANGE IS that if I launch 480/480P game it starts to blackout. It even happens on dash! I think I need to test my xbox with another TV. I own Philips 55PUS7304/12.

I measured the 3.3 regulator on that adaptor and it outputs solid 3.3V on dash where everything is fine and in game where it starts to cutoff. Molex has solid 5.03V. I think it's the noise from somewhere. Replacing the 3 caps was improvement(not cutting off in dash) but I think I need to replace more. I tried to add a 100uf cap to adaptor power input but no difference. (100uf was maybe to big to filter noise)

Hi, how those lines look?

Hi, I replaced the 3 bad caps near CPU. Voltage is solid 4.93 at the adapter but still lots of cutoffs. Strange is that when I started testing, it was fine in XBMC4Games 720p but when I loaded game it started to cutoff. First like 3 times in 10sec but like after minute there was 2sec of picture for 10sec of cutoff If it wasn’t cutting off the picture was crips and no lines or interference. Edit: I think I need to swap more caps. When it’s on dash or xbmc4games 720p it won’t cutoff. But happens in games when more power is consumed. I tested my 1.6 again and it cutsoff even in dash 480p and even worse 720p.

I measured voltages on black(+5V) and brown(GND) and HDMI is happy when it's over 4.90V but if it falls under like 4.89V-4.88V it starts to blackout. I will find a USB lead to cut and solder to the adapter. The main idea is to find some shielded wire and plant that adapter inside of the xbox. Yeah, its cheap not as cheap as Wii2HDMI but still cheap. EDIT: I desoldered black wire and soldered USB 5V and GND to the adapter leaving GND from xbox connected and adapter had power(the green led was on when USB plugged to TV) but no picture

Hi, I ordered a HDMI adapter from Ali and I have blackouts on my 1.6 and 1.2 boxes. The adapter is using 5V from AV port and I think it's not enough. My 1.2 has bad caps also next to cpu, I will replace them when they arrive but I would like to add external 5V from TV USB to the adapter. Anyone done that? Link to Aliexpress HDTV Adapter

Hi, thank you for sharing. Can you please send me the key also Thank you.
