OpenNet Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Hi, For a Electronics piece of coursework. I have to make something electronic (obviousily) In my case, I'm a keen modder. Also, I have to make it with the things I have in my storage cupboard (As I cba going to the electronics shop) Here's what I currently have: *1x Ethernet Cable *1x Uk Modem Cable (With some sort of adapter thing) *1x S Video Cable *1x Broken Ps2 (With all components still working) *1x Ps2 Network Adapter Any ideas? I'll probably end up making a trip to the store later. Lol. Thanks, Kyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Make a s-video to Cat5(e)/6 adapter, now you can watch video 25 metars away from it's source! (Porbably not very good quality though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OpenNet Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 I like that idea actually. So sort off a two in one adapter? Hmm, sounds difficult :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W4RP3D Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Hi,For a Electronics piece of coursework. I have to make something electronic (obviousily) In my case, I'm a keen modder. Do mean mod a pc case? How is the PS2 broken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OpenNet Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 No, "In my case" can mean "In my situation"... The lasers broke, but I have 2 more, so it doesn't bother me ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Kitchen Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 the svideo over cat6 hack is sweet. i say go for it. google and ye shall find diagrams. and remember to come back and show us when you've got it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OpenNet Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 I shall get working on it soon. Got to write what I'm doing first tho'! (Problem, solution, materials etc) v_v Edit: After closer looking, I'm not sure if the cable I have is a s-video cable, I'll get a pic of it, hold on.

armadaender Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Those look like standard rca cables Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Yes, that is the video connector of your YRW phono connectors. This is a s-video conector: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Kitchen Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 composite (rca connectors, yellow) over cat6 works too. i wanna see DVI over IP. not just DVI over cat6, but TCP or UDP or whatever works without making it look like junk. sorry, the software guy in me is coming out. back to the hardware mod.

Sparda Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 It does... but you may aswell use one of thoughs bus or token ring coax cables, it would work so much better with a composite connector. Also, realisitcly, it would be best to use a STP inplace of your avarage UTP cable for obviuse reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OpenNet Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 Edit: After searching my old and used hardware cupboard, I FOUND SOMETHING COOL/USABLE! Belkin Wireless USB Network Adapter 802.11g - 54 Mbps.. Maybe I can do something with this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Not realy... wireless adapters requier a high level of software control to work as wireless adapters. You might be able to take it appart, steal it's transmiter and transmite sound/video of it, but i'm very unsure about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OpenNet Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 I'll take it apart, and you can take a look.. tell me if you can see anything useful, lol... (This is our 2nd piece of electronics coursework, so I havn't learn much :() Edit: Screw the pictures, the webcam sucks for quality ;( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
