The big problem I see is that all the standard stock connectors are part of the chassis. The case actually has nothing on it. So when I install the switch and SCART connector on the case, I'll need to come up with a solution to "quick disconnect" the case from the chassis (for future service).
That being said, we're talking about a pretty HEFTY quick discount!! Here are all the wires as far as I see it:
original red from OSD (to switch)
original green from OSD (to switch)
original blue from OSD (to switch)
original blanking pin from OSD (to switch)
red output from switch
green output from switch
blue output from switch
blanking output from switch (5V or tie to original blanking)
SYNC (into composite video on chassis)
AUDIO LEFT (into white port on chassis)
AUDIO RIGHT (into red port on chassis)
GROUND
That's a total of 12 wires! Any suggestions on how to reduce this, or am I stuck? If I can reduce it to 9 pins, I was going to use DB9 male/female ports with proper plastic shielding, but at this point I'm not crazy about DB25!
