I have a sega nomad and would like to make a composite cable so i can watch it on tv. Can i take a composite cable from something else (a ps1 cable) and strip it, than connect it? if so, where would i have to connect it in the nomad's a/v out? It uses the same port as genesis 2&3, i think.

Yup and the outer metal ring is ground.

The ground for the audio and video...

oh, right. Sorry for the obvious questions, i'm new at some of this stuff, so it doesn't hurt to be sure.

The outside ring on the AV jacks is ground, btw.
