Here's the pictures of the two cables I made for the Touch Pro.
The first I made via the pzztgotbagz method. The thread is the following:

It involves splicing the wiring from a composite cable and a 2.5mm adapter cable. It wasn't easy, and I'd say it took about an hour of work and 8 dollars worth of ingredients. It ended up looking really nice when I added a short section of shrink tubing to the electric tape I used. It was the first cabling job I'd ever done, and I needed to borrow some wire strippers.
The second I made out of a 3.5 mm adapter which is a variation in the following thread:

I took a 3.5mm adapter I already had and broke pin 4. I then added a $1 (I swear to God) ipod/camcorder cable from the Telstar brand, purchased from "Dollar Dreams" in West Hartford Connecticut. The whole process took 5 minutes and cost me about 4-5 dollars in ingredients.
Both cables work great, and the picture is clearer than comes out in the pictures. Both have the same functionality as the commercial video cables, in that I can charge while watching something on the TV.
I'm not surprised that Raging Idiot wasn't able to get this to work - because of his overall incompetence. Any reader of this thread will see that he automatically assumes that if it didn't work for him, it must not for anyone else. However, read through both threads and see the number of successes for both processes. Despite what the Idiot says - more were successful than not.
That said, I'm definitely surprised and disappointed that dr. g wasn't able to get this going, though I had tried to walk him through it. For that reason alone, I'd back off from this option as a definite, can't-miss fix.
