Tv Out ... When, Oh When??

[TelcoLou]

Yes, the holiday season is upon us ... I was looking forward to sharing some old-school gaming fun on the family TV set during Christmas.

Is there any concrete word on when GPH is shipping them to the rest of the world? I read where the returned recall units got them ...

 

[LIZARDKING]

Highly unlikely for this year man. Break-out the old consoles for that TV fix...

We have the cables in stock, but they won't work until version 3 of the firmware.

I think the cables are short, a foot long, there was a lot of discussion on gp2x.com.

Just get some long av ext leads, there real cheap.

Here's a pic from GP32z's site:

... though it may have changed from this version, the cables are still short.

Extension cables.

You know, like that power saw in your workshop ... it's also got a tiny cord; it's meant to be used with an extension cable.

 

[Vimacs]

its just ment to provide a connector for your extension cables to connect to, is that so hard to understand?

 

[Paradox]

you shouldnt *need* to buy an extension cable, it should be sufficient length, stop covering GPH's ass by saying this stuff "oh just buy an extension cable" christ~

by the time ive bought everything needed for this thing its probably going to end up costing £300

​

Go to home depot, and tell the store manager that all power tools should come with really long power cords. Report back here with your results ...

correct me if im wrong, but are you complaining?

That's right I think it really could have been 1,5 meters at least, without an extension it's useless for everything but movies, heck even my digital camera came with a 2 meter TV cable(and you know they don't even include a SD/CF Card with them nowadays).

however...

​

don't worry the extension cable will be arround 5 Bucks I guess, you won't die from it, at least I hope so

 

[daclassicgamingmaster]

yeah they appear to be pretty darn inexpensive. I think im going to order one.

I do however think we WILL need an extension cable. At least im prolly gonna buy one

Shut up you prick, this is an adaptor. Do those adaptor plugs you use in foreign countries come pre-extended?
