    Possible TV NTSC->PAL Solution

    Does anyone knows where I can find the MMCS's RCA plug? I have a 1997 VR-G (shameful its VR-G not VR4 )

    I have a manual that says that there's a box somewhere in the car that you could put the video/audio RCA. But I can't find it. If I did here's one of the solutions that I found to watch TV.

    as for the ac adapter its a very easy solution.
    What do you reckon guys?

    thanks by the way to this forum provided me lots of information. I'm planing to create a user manual for the MMCS. I've seen many people are having troubles w/ the MMCS. Lucky I have a Japanese work mate who could do most of the translation.

    Found IT! thanks! Since I know XBOX can be switched from PAL->NTSC or NTSC->PAL I got it working SWIFTLY on my Galant. All you have to do is have a chipped xbox w/ some necessary softwares you need. A wireless XBOX controller and there you go! I'll post a photo as soon as I can.

    For the TV conversion, my relatives in the Philippines are shipping a "cheap" tv signal standards converter (normally cost a fortune in the US/UK etc.) I'll post you guys some updates.

    And oh, as for the "power" for the xbox, thats a different story, however there's lots of alternatives like a converter 220/110 converter on the cigarette lighter

    you will need a min 300watt inverter, and you wont be able to run it thru the cig lighter as it will draw to much current

    yep... so ive been lead to beleive....
    they are 220volt AC drawing 1.1A, which works out to be a little under 300watts.

    on my inverter it said it was not recommended to use maximum wattage thru the cig lighter. (anything over 100watts should be connected directlt to the battery.
