Default Color Composite with OS 2.4?

Has anyone gotten this to work? Will it ever be possible?

yeah, i got it to work (it's working right now, actually), but it's wonky as hell. you pretty much have to keep working through nitoTV, installing, adding it to rc.local using the kext manager, rebooting, wash rinse repeat, until it works. it usually takes me 2-3 times doing a combination of those things above to get it to stick - but that only lasts until you reboot. still, it's possible to do it if you don't mind the aggravation.

there may be a way to get it working better through a startup item im not sure. through 2.4 it has always worked fine for me (having it in rc.local) the one time frame i had to use a tv routinely that only had component. i guess it could be more unpredictable based on the tv that is being used.

Hi, I have done the following steps to have the color composite on startup:

preconditions: NitoTV with Turbo's Kextloader is installed.

Download this Package and unzip: http://files.me.com/christoph.feil/hz2o3q
(no password - if prompted for a password just enter anything)

Copy them over
scp -1 -r Composite frontrow@appletv.local:Composite

Then Login on the appletv with
ssh appletv.local
sudo mount -uw /
sudo chmod -R 755 /Users/frontrow/Composite/TVComposite.kext
sudo chown -R root:wheel /Users/frontrow/Composite/TVComposite.kext
sudo chown root:wheel /Users/frontrow/Composite/ATV_Color
sudo chmod +x /Users/frontrow/Composite/ATV_Color
sudo chown root:wheel /Users/frontrow/Composite/StartupParameters.plist
sudo mkdir /System/Library/StartupItems/ATV_Color
sudo mv /Users/frontrow/Composite/TVComposite.kext /System/Library/Extensions/TVComposite.kext
sudo mv /Users/frontrow/Composite/ATV_Color /System/Library/StartupItems/ATV_Color
sudo mv /Users/frontrow/Composite/StartupParameters.plist /System/Library/StartupItems/ATV_Color
rm -r /Users/frontrow/Composite
sudo reboot

After the reboot I have selected 576i resolution! If it is still black/white just reboot again. Then it should work!
Regards Chris

Hi! I'm new to the forum also. I'm close to your type too!

Hi Christophfe,

Could you please put the files back up you linked to? I've had composite colour working for a long time until i accendentally hit OK to update to 2.4... I haven't been able to get it working since

I'd like to try your approach please

Thanks in advance!
Mrs Often

Sorry! It downloaded without me seeing! Safari told me files were no longer available under the link, but the files had already sneaked into my downloads folder! Thanks!
