N64 freak Posted July 15, 2018 Report Share Posted July 15, 2018 I've been asked about hot to internally install my HDMI mod into an Xbox. Well i finally found the time and did such an install properly! As i don't like soldering wires all over the place i went a different route and made it a permanent install replacing the original Video Connector. Cause who would use an old composite cable if you have an hdmi out right? Audio is provided through the HDMI signal of course and it supports 5.1. And with the 3D printed plate to cover the rest off the opening it looks perfect in my eyes. And the best part it does almost not need any modification to the Case! Well except trimming a tiny bit off the DVD caddy so it doesn't touch the PCB. The PCB itself does fit into any revision console and is relatively easy to install. Any thoughts about the install? 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrappysphinx Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 I see you have that one for sale as console, are you planning to make the boards available seperately or sticking to pre-installed consoles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blobby85 Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 God damn this looks so cool. I could bite my own ass I just bought a upgraded console from you and didn't wait the few extra weeks to see this. Any chance of you installing this on my 128mb ram board?

oblivioncth Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 I'm assuming thats just a really compact component converter? Is the quality/color reproduction identical or virtual identical to the regular component output? Have you noticed any input lag (there obvious will be some but if its significant is the question). If you ever end up making a few more and want to sell it as a kit I would love to buy one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XC-3730C Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 Is there any ghosting or artifacts? Also, will you offer a system with HDMI that also preserves the AV port? Reason being is sometimes, I like to connect my Xbox to a CRT monitor via component. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N64 freak Posted July 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 Yes it does work perfectly and took quite some time to develop! For now i only have 3 finally installed boards and will possibly offer them later on. But for now there's no internal kit offered. No i haven't planned a version that can be installed to that position while still beeing able to keep th original video port. As you would have to hard link the component mode and that deactivates the Composite video output so the sense would be gone ayway! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moses_373 Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Man, if you got this into the hands of the guys over at the "my life in gaming" youtube chanel there is a horde of people (myself included) that would fall all over themselves to give you their money for an install kit (assuming the image quality is on par or better than component). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironsniper1 Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 this is awesome and i hope you do decide to make these for people to install as i have a xbox i am upgrading with a modchip and hdd to donate to the childrens department at the hospital i work at 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N64 freak Posted July 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 @ironsniper1 Yes, they will be avaylable for sale in a while. For now i just want to have a few out there to be tested be others. When all the feedback is positive i will offer them installed to upgraded motherboards or as a diy kit to install yourself. But for now they aren't avaylable in masses. Just the few i still have as prototypes. If there is interest in testing them preferably from people within europe i still have 3 i can offer right now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouter A Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 I live in the netherlands. I would like to test one as well, to compare this to the mod i do right now. I use a wii2hdmi converter, the problem i have is that larger screens have problems with 480p in 4:3 ratio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
