  1. I'm going to ignore power cables here... there's too much. Just know I've got one single 2-port outlet with a 6-port surge protector and like 4 power strips coming out of that and like a 30 foot extension cable coming out of it running up to the two TVs
  2.  
  3. I'm going to try to list how everything is hooked up
  4.  
  5. SNES - HD Retrovision YPbPr - Component Splitter
  6. Component Splitter Video - PVM
  7. Component Splitter Audio - RCA L/R Audio Joiner - PVM
  8. Component Splitter Video+Audio - USB3HDCAP - USB 3.0 Port - Laptop
  9. Component Splitter Audio - Mixer ("hot swap" - this is my game line in, which I swap in/out when switching to a different source)
  10. Component Splitter Audio+Video "Y" of YPbPr - Black and White TVs
  11. SNES Controller Port - Pidge's input display device - Cirka SNES Controller PCB inside a SFC Controller shell with Japanspel rubber pads
  12. Pidge's input display device - Laptop USB 2.0 Port
  13. SNES uses SD2SNES
  14.  
  15. Gamecube - Offbrand SNES S-Video+Audio cable - Composite+S-Video Splitter
  16. SVid Splitter - Video+Audio to big TV
  17. SVid Splitter - Video+Audio to GV-USB2
  18. SVid Splitter - RCA L/R - Mixer "hot swap" game line in
  19. Gamecube Controller Port - Gamecube to SNES Controller convertor - SNES controller
  20. Gamecube uses action replay disk to bootload into SD card for GBI (instead of GBP)
  21. Gamecube is of course then sitting on top of the Gameboy Player hardware
  22.  
  23. Blue Yeti Microphone - monitor line - 3.5mm to XLR convertor cable (used to use extension cord here too!) - Mixer mic in port
  24. Laptop 3.5mm - 3.5mm to RCA audio - Mixer 2-track line
  25. Mixer Headphones - Headphones
  26.  
  27. Laptop - Ethernet
  28. Laptop - Power
  29. Laptop - VGA to 2nd Monitor
  30. Laptop USB 3.0 - USB Hub
  31. Laptop USB 2.0 - Phone Charger (2)
  32. Laptop USB 3.0 - External Hard Drive (PB Video backups, need to unplug USB3HDCAP for this to happen)
  33.  
  34. USB Hub - Mixer power
  35. USB Hub - Mouse
  36. USB Hub - Keyboard
  37. USB Hub - Microphone USB power + line
  38. USB Hub - External webcam (for "TV View")
  39. USB Hub - USB-B-Mini to SD2SNES
  40.  
  41. House 4 security cameras - DVR - VGA to cheap monitor
  42. DVR - House camera mouse
  43.  
  44. On top of all this, the whole setup is in a way where if I'm playing a retro game I face the TVs (to the right of the laptop) into the "TV camera" and then into the laptop camera for a PC game. This requires that the setup work with those 2 different orientations and I have a mic stand that is adjusted to work in both positions without readjusting (I just need to untangle it and actually move the dang thing)
