Welcome to my world and have fun ;)

To be perfectly honest though, while it definitely works and does so great, you'll - most likely - notice some irritating things, soon. Like the fact, that 800x480 resolution downscaled to RCA video out 720x...something produces blurry fonts for text, and it makes web browsing on big screen less pleasant than it could be (same for gaming, BTW). What I would do to have that 800x480 transferred to Big Screen unscalled, even without any higher resolution...

Out of curiosity - what the hell you need those on/off switches (next to every port) for?

They are cool besides you can just use the switches to plug unplug i am nailing one to my table.

Tried on rather small LCD TV - looks much better than on 32". I believe something around 15" is optimal for the task.
