Ok I'm lost here. How did you know which wiring to cut off? I mean, you had to have cut of the old cable connector or something. OK OK. You have to show me a photo of what you did because I do not understand it. The HDMI contact is one piece which carries all the different cables within one cable. You had to removed the cable at from with the back of monitor to see which ones were power and video, did you not?

This may not help, but the connectors on my monitor are color coded.

The connectors of the short breakout cable are also color coded. I just cut off the cables from the breakout cable, not inside the monitor  Smiley.
This would have been possible as well and I thought about adding BNC sockets direktly to the monitor chasis. Maybe I'll do that in the future as the remaining cable is still a little too large. For the moment I attach cable and connectors to my monitor rods with velcro to avoid shifting.

On the pictures you see the rear of the monitor with the Multi-Signal connector and the 30 cm breakout cable from Car-TFT in their original configuration:

Here is a picture of my own monitor and the cable without VGA, USB, Audio... What's left are the video cables and power. I added adapters from chinch to BNC and I also replaced the original power connector with a lemo for the steadicam.

Thank you Andreas. One thing, doesn't the extra cables make the setup bulky? I figure you just wrap the extra cables around the monitor rods, right?

That's right, it's a little bulky. I wrap the cable around the monitor rods and attach the connectors with velcro in addition.

OK, thank you again for taking the time. BTW, please see my thread in the HBS members forum. I have a question for you there.
