Hi John,
I would be interested to know if your composite video connection works
directly with the Pi.
Connecting directly to the input on my TV does not work.
Yet, I have found a 'work around' by connecting a Scart to Composite
convertor plug. The latter I found was available for 1ukp at a local
PoundLand.
The display is then in B&W.
Sound is available, too, with a separate mini-jack plug to RCA phone
plug at the Scart adaptor.
Now I can what Pi is doing ... :-)
Yes it has a composite output as well

Hi,
Finally received "my slice of Pi" - the Raspberry Pi, from RS - today
12th October 2012.
I had to re-order, earlier in the Year, when my email address used
was no longer working
I also ordered a Type B Case, in white, and a 4GB SD Card with OS
installed. Which all fits together by simple clip fittings on the
injection moulding.
Although, RS are posting the Pi PCB with a plastic protective casing,
albeit in a translucent shade of raspberry pink!
Umm ... like the early days of 'home computing', you have to put
something else with it. I don't have an HDMI display, yet may be able
use a DVI on my old TV. Then there is the need for a USB keyboard and
mouse.
My Pi is due soon; I've a USB keyboard, USB hub and card reader, and
PSU. The missing bit is a monitor. I use a mono Philips on the QL,
video input and have another later style Philips as spare. Will the Pi
work through the video input? Otherwise I have got video i/p on the TV.
By then I hope to be able to get an SD card with a QL emulation; is
anyone going to market one, please?
