If you remove the audio and composite out that only saves 3 cables. Add in
the two usually NC makes 5. Which leaves 16. I'd guess they're making some

I emailed them to ask (after finding someone who bought one from ebay that
looks *identical* but is composite only) and got the following:

"The carry RGB, not sure about pin 8, they get round the pin limitation by
connecting all the grounds together."

So, yes it's RGB, yes they compromise with the grounds but still unknown on
the switching :-/. (Top marks on their response time though - very quick).

I think I'm heading back to a couple of plugs and me sitting swearing in
the built in wardrobe burning my fingers with a soldering iron for a
while :-(
