Accessories HTC Droid Incredible TVout

So I got my cable in the mail yesterday. When trying to hook it up like I wanted to above I realized that the video line has to have some sort of feed for the DINC to recognize it has something plugged into it and actually switch to TV out mode. So playing with it some more, I found that grounding the video line got the phone to recognize the TV out cable was plugged in and enabled it to play the audio through my car stereo like I was hoping. I grounded it by connecting it to one of the metal seat guides on the floor of the car. Now I'll just need to find a way to make that connection more permanent.

Just thought I'd share in case anyone else had some crazy ideas about using this cable for more than just displaying on a TV. I'd love to know if anyone else has a better idea for me.

Ok, I'm looking to pull the trigger on one of these for my truck. Can you tell me whether the audio coming from the usb is legitimately a flat line-out or does it fluctuate w/ the volume control like the headphone jack? I always used the dock connector of my ipod-->RCA-ins on my truck stereo for the best sound quality. I want to be able to do the same w/ the Inc but haven't gotten a clear answer as to whether the sound quality is much better thru the usb port compared to the headphone jack.

No one knows or cares, huh?
