First I had to outline the Pinouts of the actual plug

Posted Image
Next I found one of those straight through av cables and cut it in half

Posted Image
I then Stripped the wire and prepared the connector

Posted Image
I next started to solder it up. Sure its not pretty but it works

Posted Image
4 out of the 3 wires all soldered up

Posted Image
All the pins soldered up, still not pretty, but I tried

Posted Image
The finished cable. Note the zip tie I used, this is to round the cable for when I can find some heat shrink tube to encase it in.

The cable plugged into the tv.

Posted Image
And a better shot of the cable plugged into the top of the Zune

Close up of the zune

Posted Image
And like magic the same image now on my TV

Posted Image
This is an actual video I put on my Zune, 2 points for the one to name it


All in all It was a fairly straight foward mod. Sure I could have bought the real cables for god knows how much money. But why bother. Need 1.2 firmware.
