What model did I buy, (wdbaap0000nbk-01) and how to connect the composite signals?

Sounds like you have an old WDTV Live / Live Plus and your TV is only compatible for Composite Input for this device.

 

The cable you need is a 3.5mm to Composite (Yellow,Red,White)

 

Or if your TV SCART is Component Input then you will need 2 Cables (Green,Blue,Red for Video Signal + Red,White for Audio)

 

Component will give you much better Picture Quality over Composite

 

Unfortunately these are a *special* cables with different pinouts to a standard cable AV cable.

 

This post … the user lost his/her cable

 

Bill_S   recommended contacting WD Techincal Support for a Replacement

So, what I learned from that thread from 2010, is: The pin mapping of the AV flavour of the cable is standard. Probably the same type of cable is used for the three channels (but that can be concluded only inversely, because a component cable can replace an AV / composite cable. The other way round was not mentioned.)

Does the component signal run synchronized with the composite signal also for the pretty slow SD signal? My TV is a Sony KV-36HQ100, it has RGB inputs.
