Has anyone made this adapter?

Apparently it merely pulls the NTSC composite signal from the video port (as well as the audio signal from the same port)... is that it??

Word is that the output quality is noticeably improved over the regular composite... why would that be?

So many questions...

Well, I did a quick wire up and some tests on CRT and LCD and afaict there's no actual difference between the NTSC signal at the video connector vs the composite connector, despite emerging from different pins of the VID hybrid. So, yeah.

If someone else has a different experience, I'd love to hear it.
