Since most cables advertise only 8 pins what is the actual full number of lines required by the connector?<br /><br />@AppRadioWorld: Thanks very much for this great post. We are kindred spirits.<br /><br />Would someone with an extension cable that is --proven-- to work with the audio & video please confirm which link is the source since it seems there have been mixed results and it's not exactly clear which seller had the one that actually works, including color since that seems to matter. Thanks.<br /><br />I currently use the great CableJive 30-pin 1-meter Extension Cable shown above to integrate my iPhone with the head unit in my car and have been rounding up the parts to connect using Lightning. <br /><br />Kudos to AppRadioWorld for your ambitious efforts at making your own cable. I'm been doing it for years for myself and occasionally on the job and, with all due respect for your ambitious attempt, the trick is not to just splice it in as you tried. As mentioned, the twisted pairs (if present) matter, as does shielding. To reduce EMI noise and just make it durable and professional looking you must pry open the end connectors and solder directly to them as the manufacturer does, then reassemble it. There are some how-to's if you Google for it with the Apple MacBookPro power supplies. This is challenging with the tiny wires in Apple cables but possible with the right tools and care. I've done it with the 30-pin iPod cables, Apple MacBookPro chargers, and the sync-and-charge-only Lightning cable. I've even modified circuit boards by adding new traces to them so I know modifications to anything big enough to see is possible but neatness counts for more than the sake of appearance.<br /><br />Here's a link to my ongoing project for Smartphone Integration with my car's head unit in case anybody is interested. I'm about to update it with full how-to details including having converted one of those unused console buttons that every car has to be the Home button for my iPhone 4S. Now I can tuck the phone out of site in the center console, see it on the head unit, and control it using Siri via by pressing one of the car's stock buttons within easy "Eyes Free" reach. If you can Jailbreak then Siri can also do things out of the ordinary:<br /> http://www.slkworld.com/slk-r171-general-discussion/10092-smartphone-integration-comand-ntg1-2.htmlBloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16658487197581847346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829441521004562108.post-15049426661229601242013-11-21T17:32:13.152-08:002013-11-21T17:32:13.152-08:00Same here.

I repeat it DOES NOT WORK. :-(<br /><br />When I remove the extension HDMI works great, so it for sure isn't' working.<br /><br />I extended the regular lightning cable to my laptop, and iTunes syncs fine. (and charges the phone)<br /><br />It's strange that the extension doesn't allow HDMI to work when data works. I wonder what's missing/special?<br /><br />It sucks that the same eBay seller sells both white and black cables with the same price and description yet the black one doesn't work. <br /><br />I'm waiting for my dx.com $4 cable to arrive next and will post results. If it doesn't work I'll have to order the other eBay white one.JazJonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11390468171918326334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829441521004562108.post-25229050247777488002013-08-20T15:53:51.652-07:002013-08-20T15:53:51.652-07:00Deal Extreme is based in China.

If it doesn't work, we received a lemon cable. (doesn't mean they all don't work) They use minimal copper, and little support at connector. AppRadioWorld admin probably received a bad one. One example of a bad regular $1.70 lightning cable I received is it would only charge plugged in one directly. The other 5 I bought worked fine though (I could flip them 180 no problem) We get what we pay for. This should hold us over until the DockXtender comes out.JazJonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11390468171918326334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829441521004562108.post-33046718383368637452013-08-20T13:35:44.102-07:002013-08-20T13:35:44.102-07:00Working with video apps.

I'm guessing the properties of Ethernet and lightening cables having the same limitations. Once you mess with the twist, it's game over. (so no way of extending wires the old school sloppy electrical tape methods) There is new technology that allowed manufactures to produce much thinner HDMI wires called redmere. (and you can have MUCh longer runs too now!)<br />http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-33199_7-57372595-221/monoprices-ultraslim-60-foot-hdmi-cable-with-redmere-hands-on/<br />I'm no expert on Lightening, but I have to think so of the digital properties apply. (and it's very sensitive if not done exactly right)<br /><br />I'm guessing that many of the China cables will have lemons. I order Lightening cables from dx.com (deal extreme) all the time for $1 a pop (for myself and friends/family), and 10% of them fail pretty quick. The ones that last are good for quite awhile though. (who cares at $1) $15 is too much though for a chance!JazJonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11390468171918326334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829441521004562108.post-5805704826083034672013-08-20T04:03:46.656-07:002013-08-20T04:03:46.656-07:00Thanks! yes help us put the mystery to rest.
