Re: RF Modulators

Your Super Nintendo may be able to use the N64's stock A/V cable. which will bring you composite connections. Most Sega consoles spit out several type of A/V signals including composite and s-video. The Genesis can do composite with the correct video cable and maybe a little homemade audio amp (Gen3 only). I think it can also do s-video.My assumption is that Camp - I daisy-chained RF switches back in the day and did not have any problems

Re: RF Modulators

Nowadays I can do some pretty serious wiring, I'll connect speakers through the ceiling, connect all devices so they are ease to use, etc. I think once you've done it for a long time you will be a maestro on that.Yeah actually I have (without hte DVD/VCR combo, but obviously that doesn't matter), I didn't have any issues with it, of course I've been wiring stuff since I was 5 years old, I definitely had some serious issues my first time ever wiring the TV.I can't even think it took you 3 days to get it working.Do you usually know what you're doing or is wiring stuff usually just a fumble for you until you get everything working?

Re: RF Modulators

It depends on the quality of your display, wires, switcher(s), and output devices. If technically shooting for the best outcome possible,no need get in to that route.I am comfortable with two RF inputs since I can simply get a 2 port RF switch. The part that I did not understand is how to connect the 4 S-Video and 2 composite connections. My TV only has one composite input and one S-Video input. From googling around, I discovered that there exists A/V switches that can handle both composite and S-Video inputs.
