Hi,
I have done a very similar thing, Argos were selling PS1 and PS2 moulators for £4.99 a few years back, so I got a couple and made 1 up as you have done. The other one got used for experiments where I took power from the scart socket of a freeview box (can't remember which pin now..) through a 5v regulator. It worked for a while, but not well, then the sound dissapeared! That ones on the junk pile somewhere now! The idea was to make it so it was just 1 cable between the TV and the Freeview box, no extra sockets used up by power supplies.

regards,
Lloyd.
