Adding composite video/audio to an old TV

[Tim R.]

Now that analog broadcasting is gone, and virtually nothing uses the twin line or coax connectors any more, I've been toying with the idea of converting some of my TV's to accept composite video and audio.

In addition to less wires and boxes, I theoretically should get better performance by doing this instead of using an RF modulator, as there would be no signal loss due to modulation, demodulation and poor Chinese workmanship.

It seems like a fairly simple mod. Add connectors to the audio and video amplifiers, a switch to ground the stages before those sections, and a resistor between the audio jacks if the TV has mono sound.

I've searched through the forums but haven't found much about this topic. Is it as simple as I described it, or is my logic flawed?


Thanks!
