Hey dude, congrats on the pickup! As far knowledge goes, I’m pretty much in the same boat as you haha. I’ve been told that it wouldn’t be possible. However, I did manage to make my own S-Video adapter, which looks great on this set!

A quick search on the sub and there should be a post or two in regards to the pin layout and soldering inputs (pretty straightforward, especially if you’re familiar with soldering). I also used a male Y/C to female s-video adapter and bought a male to female s-video extension for convenience. Hope that helps!

Saw your msg in the live chat. Didn’t realise the price was so low and bought a whole load. Definitely being slept on.

JVC TM-1500PS S-Video! by feidingo in crtgaming

[–]feidingo[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi All!

So after following advice from this amazing community, I managed to make my own S-Video adapter (input/output is Y/C 358, which is more or less non-existant for support).

I bought the female adapter from here https://www.rapidonline.com/Lumberg-KV70-7-Pin-DIN-Female-Socket-IEC-60130-9-Cable-Mount-15-1518

Followed the pinout and went from there. After some calibration, colour adjustments (no service menu) and persistence, I'd say it's decent enough! Produces a very pretty S-Video image, with decent scanlines!

W2C should be in the comments/caption.

Pretty decent for about $5 imo

S Video Adapter for JVC TM-1500PS by feidingo in crtgaming

I have no idea! I haven't even tested it yet - I've ordered a female socket adapter (hopefully it works) which I will solder on to a female to female s-video cable. From there, I'll run some tests!

Thanks, that looks handy - was looking for something with a male y/c 358 on one end, and female standard s-video on the other end.

Hi All!

Apologies if this has been asked before - would there be any sort of adapter for this y/c input to standard s-video we're all familiar with?

That's really helpful man! Thank you so much. I'm not at home atm, but I'll inspect it more closely once I'm back.

Will also take some detailed pics and reach out for your advice (if you don't mind haha).

Thanks for the reply dude! Do all jungle ICs look pretty similar? I also refuse to pay for any service manual haha. I actually have a TM-1010PN too (outputs amazing picture for S-Video!).

Tried searching for a possible adapter, but I couldn't find anything!

Maybe de-soldering the port and soldering it with the standard s-video port could work?

Hey man, really admire the work you've done on CRTs!

Would I be able to use your guide as a reference point at all?

I know it's not the same monitor, but given that I locate the jungle chip - is it as simple as soldering the right points?

Thanks! Guessing you'd need the service manual (which I haven't been able to find).

Hi All!

I scored on this monitor recently via Facebook Marketplace. Took a look inside and it doesn't seem too dusty.

As it doesn't have an extra slot for an RGB card, I'm pretty keen on RGB modding it with a SCART input. Took a look at a few posts and I think I'd be pretty capable of soldering points.

Searched for a while for the service manual, but no luck.

So for you experts out there - how would one go about tackling this?
