The question of composite came after the photo when people wher unsure what the two extra plugs where for, it still hasn't been clearly answered from what i can tell. Supposedly audio wont come from the ext port so it has to come from the headphone jack. if that's the case what are the other two plugs for?

Well in my mind 3 plugs means component, but I don't think that would be the case.

I still think it is audio look at the picutre on gp32z

It's been my understanding for sometime From what I've always seen Svideo is only one cable, the large one seen in the picture. I'm also under the impression from being on this forum and watching posts from people who should know a lot more about it than I that the EXT port wasn't going to be the source of sound. If that isnt the case then yeah they;re probably audio but I haven't seen anyone confirm or deny dispite the question being asked serveral times it so it's still a mystery as to what the two extra really are.

Then Sony sold its PS1 with crappy Composite cable

If that's the case then why did the PS1 Sony Europe sent me (won in a comp) come with a ultra-crappy RF cable?

Then What about TV IN AND TVOut ...
That make sense with this 3 way cable since Svideo got usually 4 pins, 2 for TV out and 2 for TV in and you got 2 RCA like cables wchich could be also RCA composite in 2 ways.

Or they did some kind of "hack" and try to carry a kind of svideo signal on 2 RCAs but I wonder if many TV support this kind of putting Luminance and Chrominance on Red and Green signal this way on the component plugs.

is this small picture the only one there is yet ?

edit : I don't think it would be Coaxial , Coax is through the RF port I think and it's even far worse than composite, plus it's tricky to do from the chip point of view if you need to work on NTSC Japan, USA and PAL Europe TVs...

Well the 2 cables are clearly RCA jacks and they are male so don't expect tv in on them (hmmm might be able to hack this to do it reverse though in the future).
