In this simple, easy-to-follow tutorial, we’ll be showing you how to hook up your Pi Zero to a TV via an RCA cable. That’s right – believe it or not, the Pi Zero isn’t limited to just HDMI video. By soldering a header pin, hooking up a couple of jumper wires, and adding a screw terminal RCA connector, you can easily access the RCA video output so you can use an old CRT TV in your next Raspberry Pi project.

Solid Silver RCA Phono Cables. After the drain wire is connected and shrinktube applied the next steps will be to slide on your metal barrel and solder on the bullet plug. Make certain at this point that the bullet plug you are about to install matches the colour of the one you previously soldered on the opposite end of the cable. Getting Started. Technic Solder is a server-side PHP application based on the Laravel Framework. Its main goal is to provide differential updates for the Technic Launcher to process. This can include any type of file. Another goal is to process file check-sums to ensure the receiver is obtaining unaltered files. After the installation, your wirings should look like the diagram in the picture. The red wire is the power wire, which should be connected to the amp from the engine bay to the trunk. Blue wiring is the remote wire, which is the one soldered for longer connection. Green wiring is for the RCA leads. Connect the ground connector to the RCA end. Find the long tab that extends out of the RCA end and has a hole in the center. Insert the tinned ground connector into the hole and apply the soldering iron to the conductor wire. This should be adequate enough to make a solid connection.

We’re going to be soldering two pin headers onto the Pi Zero. Start by soldering a pin header to the square pad labelled ‘TV’ on your Pi, then solder another header onto the circle pad next to the square pad. Both pads are contained within a white outline. See image below for reference.

You could solder wires directly to these pins, but by using pin headers you get a nice neat solution that allows your connection to be removed when required. Once the headers have been soldered to your Pi, you can then move on to attaching the jumper wires to your RCA screw terminal. Using the male side of the jumper wire, attach them to each of the terminals, making sure to screw them up nice and tight. Make a note of which wire is plugged into the positive pin and negative pin.

Now plug each of the wires into the pin headers you previously soldered onto your Pi. Make sure the wire connected to the positive terminal is connected to the pin labelled ‘TV’.

That’s it for setting up the hardware. Now your Pi should automatically detect which video method you’re using, either HDMI or RCA. If it doesn’t, however, read on and follow our software configuration to get it working.

Setting up the software

First things first: either SSH into your Raspberry Pi, or open up a terminal window.

We need to make some changes to the config.txt file, but before we do that it’s probably a good idea to make a backup of the original, just in case: 

Now we have our backup, we can edit the original and make some changes. Start by opening config.txt in your editor of choice. We’ll be using nano:

There are two lines in the file that you need to edit. Firstly, you need to remove the comment ‘#’ from the following line:

So it should now look like this:

Then we need to add a comment ‘#’ to the following line:

So it should now look like this:

That’s it. Remember to save your file – if you used nano, press CTRL+X to exit; then, when asked if you want to save changes, enter Y then press RETURN.

Now you can plug your RCA cable into your TV/monitor, and you should hopefully see the video output.

Male RCA Plug Shootout..
A DIY Deee-Lite!
Review by Steven R. Rochlin

Audio as a true hobby provides manyoptions for the do it yourself (DIY) enthusiast. While it takes little effort tosimply buy a pre-built product and place it in your system, the rabid DIY isnever satisfied with such things. They will either build their own units or takea commercial product and tweak away. In either case, it seems that many of youout there are making your very own cables. My hopes are that this article willbe the first in a series of reviews concerning the various bits and pieces thatare available to the tweakers and home-brew DIY folks worldwide. As a professionalmusician who began soldering at the ripe old age of five, my first 'dayjob' was with none other than the legendary Heathkit Electronics of Benton Harbor, Michigan.Yes, the same Heathkit from DIY kit fame who sold, in kit form, everything fromtriple trace oscilloscopes to robots.. and of course tube amplifiers.

While this series of DIY Deee-lites will not venture into thetweaking of specific mainstream commercial products, we will be covering how topossibly improve many of the products currently residing in your musicreproduction system. Please be mindful as not all tweaks will be easy, norinexpensive. Worse still not all tweaks, no matter what the cost, are aguarantee to improve the sound quality of a components. There are synergisticfactors one must realize. Sometimes the 'sum is better than the individualparts'.

In this first DIY Deee-Lite we will be taking a look at variousRCA connectors. Since we audiophiles are generally stuck with the decades oldRCA plugs whose design is inherently flawed and leaves much to be desired. No properdesigner today would make a connector whose positive lead connects before theground/negative lead. Still, short of directly soldering all our interconnectsto components one is left using the RCA connector. Since many of you make yourown cables, it seems natural to start this series with the male RCA plug.

And The Participators Are..

From Germany is the value-priced Clearaudio MPC (28DM, orabout $15). As one expects with German precision, this connector is a no nonsensewell-made plug with unique features of its own. This is Clearaudio's budget maleRCA plug.

USA-based connector specialist Cardas manufactures a vast amountof connectors (RCA, BNC, and many for loudspeakers) has provided us with theirSRCA ($14.95). This is possibly the most luxurious looking of the bunch. Oooohla la!

Also coming to us all the way from Germany we have the mid-level WBT WBT-0147 ($17.50 each, $80 in a kit offour) and top line WBT WBT-0108 ($35 each, $150 in a kit of four). The kit offour comes in a nice display box; includes solder and Torx key. Think ofprecision German engineering gone to the Xtreme.
