The Belkin AV cables available from the likes of DSE etc, do NOT work with the ipod Classics, touch or iPhones.

Is it a 3.5mm to 2xRCA? Should work fine just try the audio plugs in the video in (yellow port) on your TV

It is is 3.5mm to 3xRCA. And for some reason they just do not work. Maybe the earth is on the wrong connector?

With the latest and....(un)greatest iPods, Video out has been crippled. You can only get it from the dock cock connector using apples way over priced cables, which you can't even get from the nz store right now. Not even their own universal dock will help you.

As Fossie has said, it will not work.

As for the PSP, I think it will work but only for certain applications. I do not think you are able to play games or watch movies unless you use the component cable?
