    My old TV only has component input, and the placement requires a longer cable than they supplied. Does anyone make a 3.5 mm plug to component video, as well as the 3.5 plug to L,R, and Composite video cables.

    Or has anyone successfully used a Male to Female extender stereo cable into the WDTV Live box and then use their crummy proprietary cables attached to the extension?

    Help! Otherwise it works great, but no HDMI on the current set, so I need to stretch that signal!

    Thanks

    I've successfully ran a 45 foot component cable to my video projector with no problems. I got it from Monoprice. http://www.monoprice.com/home/index.asp They may also have a 3.5mm to component adapter, but probably easier to use 3 female to female RCA adapters with the stock WD adapter.

    Simple ... forget about the 3.5mm plug part, just grab longer rca cables and a rca connection adapter allowing you to join the rca cables to extend them.

    Only use rca cables long enough to do this ... those devices are not very powerful as compared to pc to tv setups which can use 50'+ cables without problems.
