Clarification. The RCA-to-RCA solution works but it's more than just a
video cable. That signal is ONLY the video.
Such a solution (as an alternative to coaxial) requires a triple-RCA AV
cable with yellow, red and white RCA connectors on each end.

I've used this. Video quality is inferior to using coax, but that's not an
issue here.
