Simple and useful mod for the

1702: Add a jumper link behind the switch as seen in the first pic. Now both front and rear video inputs are wired together. Switch becomes Composite or Chroma+Luma selector. (Audio inputs already wired together on this monitor.)

My 1702's front audio pops and cuts out while the back audio works fine. I haven't endeavored to open it yet to figure it out. How tricky is it?
@rayrayrayraydog
It's probably just a bad connection as both front and rear audio inputs are connected together at all times on the switch PCB on the back of the monitor.

Hmm… I feel like I’m missing something. Since composite input connector is only on the front and chroma/luma input connectors are only on the back, what’s the use case where this is helpful?
