Default Re: Freeview/iPlayer With Modulator

The first and second generation Raspberry Pi s had composite video outputs...
I believe they still do, but not in the original convenient form of a dedicated single pole yellow RCA-out jack. Later ones have the stereo audio-out and composite video-out combined in one four pole jack.

Even the Pi Zero has composite video out, but no actual composite video output connector by default. It can be picked up with a flying soldered lead from a couple of the PCB pads.

However, as there is no official Linux equivalent of the Windows iplayer_downloads software, it might be limited to the streamed (web browser) mode of iplayer.
