Voila!

My compliments to you Sir, for staying in pursuit of the problem. This "RCA" socket/plug design unfortunately never matured into an enforceable commercial standard, eliminating such wide variance in implementations.

I guess we can thank Digital to some degree for fixing that headache... As in: HDMI / USB / DisplayPort / etc.

Tip-Toe'ing into low-mass variations of relatively ancient designs can be adventurous and fun, but reliability tends to be the occasional victim.

Good work, and enjoy your experimentation. (But get a decent DMM!)
