I already soldered the RGB pin; that works. But how do you connect the other pin. What resistor did you use? It says input impedance > 10 kOhm. Now, what do I use to get from 12V to 6V? Simply use 10 kOhm? > My TV allows me to explicitly select RGB which works even if the > pin is indicating composite so I just use that.

My tv is on auto detect, so it will do 4:3 tv in 16:9 subtitle zoom mode and will do 16:9 in true 16:9 if it's detected. It will detect a tv transmission in 16:9 and a 16:9 dvd if my dvd player is used, but not if I play the dvd on mythtv.
