  9. Johnny Chung Lee Interview - Nintendo-Scene Says:
    January 18th, 2008

    [...] Alan Parekh from hackedgadgets has interviewed Johnny Lee. You may remember Johnny Lee from some of his previous Wii Controller modding and hacking projects, such as the head tracker and touch screen technology. Read the full interview at hackedgadgets. Alan Parekh: What can we expect to see in the future? Any cool projects that you have dreamed up but haven’t yet had the time to implement? Johnny Lee: Hehe, I have a LOT of un-implemented ideas. My to-do list is always growing much faster that I have time to accomplish. Sometimes, I just wish I had an army of developers working for me. Hopefully, my future work will be as cool as the one’s I’ve already done. Usually, I only pick ideas that I think are cool to work on which has, so far, meant other people will probably like them too. But, it’s probably best for me not to talk about them too far in advance otherwise I might burst my own bubble. I guess you’ll just have to wait and see. Sorry to be a tease. [...]

    Hiya,

    I hope you can help because I’ve been everywhere, no luck in finding the product anywhere…. to be-honest, I don’t think it has been invented yet.

    all it is, is:

    Item = ‘male audio in (L)white + (R)red’ convert the other end of the wireinto a ‘USB PORT’

    Reason = for USB Headphones to work on Tv’s

    Problem = could not locate product, or even if invented yet.

    is it possible if you can please point me in the direction, i be most greatful!

    Thank you for your time and hope to hear from you real soon

    Cheers
    S.lea (U.K)

    close, seen loads of those adapters for the headphones.

    but what i’m after is slightly dif.

    heres a pic: www1.dealextreme.com/productimages/sku_5143_1.jpg

    keep the ends of the red and white wire / cut off the other end and change it to a usb … now not the usb stick end but the usb port for a usb stick to go in.. heres the pic of the port.. but not that many just one will do spacer

    thats what im after spacer

  41. Alan Parekh Says:

    OK I see what you mean. You have a normal audio source and would like to listen to it using some USB headphones. It actually seems a bit of a round about way to listen to audio since the USB headphones convert digital to analog which is what is coming out of the TV.

    As far as I know you will need to plug the TV into a computer so that it can do the analog to digital conversion, then plug your USB headphones into the computer to listen to it. You could do this using a microcontroller that has analog in and USB support but that would be lots of work. spacer

    lol that would be a mission dragging my pc to the TV, but it will work.

    the reason I ask of this crazy request, is that i brought a PS3 and a USB headphones.
    The problem is, is that the sony playstation 3 does not play music/video/gameplay sounds through the headphones… all it is capable of it to do, is use the headphones to listen to people talk to you and for you talk back.. (poor design software, apparantly I heard ‘Xbox’ got it right)

    my only other choice was to route the headphones into the TV.. but that is another problem all-together, because the TV is not compatable with usb headphones..

    back to the drawing board I go lol spacer

    Its great chatting with you and cheeers v much 4 ur time and assist! spacer

  43. Alan Parekh Says:
    January 2nd, 2009

    If you don’t mind doing some soldering (since I don’t think this’s made) you can solder up an adapter that will plug into the RCA audio outputs of the TV and go to a female headphone jack. You would need to use normal headphones but that would work.
