Yes, I made a little cable to go from a 1/8 stereo jack to an RCA plug
and a power jack. I ran it with 5V from a power brick, but measured
~6V coming from the remote. There appears to be some wiggle room
there, but I'm not going to test how much ($140 is a lot for a small,
unimpressive firework :-)

True that. It might be marginally better, but the margin isn't worth
$200. Wikipedia puts NTSC at around 270x480 and PAL at 350x576, but
good luck finding a PAL scan converter In the US.
