So far as anyone knows, the only way to get the TV out to work is through the USB on the phone! Check out my post here! http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=86220&page=3

Yes, I've tried it. Hooked it into our TV and I was very impressed with the quality.

I get a small amount of blue flicker running my SlingBox on my Eclipse 7" DVD/NAV screen in my truck. It doesn't seem to do it all the time & it's certainly no deal killer but it can be annoying at times.

I use the Expansys cable with no mods & the picture is perfect on the phone when the flicker occurs.

The only other time it flickers is using coreplayer & QTV video, but I never use CP anymore as Album/WMP gives better playback (true hardware accelleration) of my h.264 DVD rips.

I've tried my Sling/TP2 setup in a couple other vehicles also (a guy I work with has a Z1 Pioneer DVD/NAV setup & it does the flicker with that also)

Ditto with the flicker here. Running out to Pioneer 7500 and 7800.

Dunno if OP sorted out his problem or not, but, if you are making the home-made wire, you need to A. Cut the correct wire inside, which I believe is blue, I don't have one around me to check. And B. when plugging it into the TV, switch around the colors and plug them into each others holes, such as audio cable into video jack, etc. Different wires make different combos you have to do. If you put it in wrong it'll just show black and white, so experiment. That's how it worked on the TP at least, I haven't tried on the TP2.

Just to let you know though, t-mobile stores sell the video out cable for 20$, and the wires are compatible with any carriers model, in case you'd rather not buy online.

If you are using Core Player, change the video output setting from "QTv" to "Raw Frame Buffer". I find it gives pretty smooth playback (not as smooth as QTv) WITHOUT any blue flicker.
