I used the "cork/bottle" terminology when putting all this together instead of "male/female" for connector types and enforced that in the file image naming convention. Not a big deal but there should be a note in the README/contribution instructions that we (I) will continue to enforce gender-neutral language if anyone contributes relevant images/edits/descriptions
update README with instructions for installing via homebrew/linuxbrew and running locally
A long-lingering result of the switch to ffmprovisr's codebase is that the internal linking from any module to its relevant connector/protocol pinout in pinouts.md is broken: in the online version, browsers just want to download the pinouts.md file. Offline, pinout images are live-linked to pinouts.ru so don't display even if opened properly with a browser with markdown viewing.
options:
Figure out how to create internal links for headings that appear multiple times in TOC (e.g. "digital," "analog") in markdown
Hi there maintainer(s), I would like to cite this project in academic research, and wondering if you'd be willing to attach a DOI to one of the releases.
There are two services that I've found that can do this, lmk if you need a hand:

and Zenodo:

Thanks!
I've never seen a cable like this and I didn't see it in the cable bible! Whatcha think?
This is what it is attached to, something that plays Pong. It seems to be Turkish and transmits a PAL signal. We also think a feature is that it is supposed to be playable without being plugged into a television, so it might be meant to transmit a very short broadcast signal.
I love this resource very much. Is this licensed under Creative Commons, MIT, other...?
technically MIDI isn't an audio signal per se, so should probably be under "Data"
there's also a bunch more connectors besides the older/standard 5-pin DIN, which might actually help clarify the signal type and when/what/why MIDI comes into play (e.g. USB/FireWire/ethernet jacks)
see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIDI#Alternative_hardware_transports
At the moment, there is only the 3-pin variant. I would suggest to add the other XLR connectors as well: from 4-pin to 7-pin. For example, the 4-pin was the standard power connector for film cameras for many years (pin 1 is negative and pin 4 is positive).
hi,
feel free to disregard, but I was recently asked about alternatives to "male/female" language when referring to cables, and while I knew this had been addressed in the cable bible, it took me a minute to realize that the gender inclusive note was added only to the README and not the website proper. any chance you'd be willing/interested in adding this? from my perspective, redundancy would be good here.
thanks!

Could adding the speakON connector type be considered?
using "%" sign in file names for images breaks markdown links. find different way to mark images in need of attribution vs public domain
Under TDIF, the Bible states: "The Tascam Digital Interface Format is a proprietary protocol and connector, therefore seen exclusively with Tascam devices...."
Tascam licenses this format to many other manufacturers. In fact, if you click on the image for the DB-25 connector shown, TDIF can clearly be seen on a Yamaha device.

This way, any time
brew update
brew upgrade
is run, also cable-bible
will be updated to the lastest release, if needed.
@nkrabben reported:
After I brew install cable-bible
, I try to run it cable-bible
. I then receive an error.
LSCopyApplicationURLsForBundleIdentifier() failed while trying to determine the application with bundle identifier 193- },.
Searching hasn't yielded anything that helps me understand what the issue is.
This allows to provide releases and use the app also locally, without access to the Internet.
Casual research indicates that because of the differences in electrical impedance, one could safely use digital AES-3 cables with XLR connectors to make analog connections, but not use analog XLR cables to make digital AES/EBU connections (at least not without introducing extra noise/fuzziness into the digital audio).
This is a crucial difference to know - so if one comes across a random XLR cable, how does one identify that it is analog or AES-3?

Not sure if we need to list them here, but a link to the IEC website would be useful: http://www.iec.ch/worldplugs/
Perhaps you should specifically note in the SDI section that even though SDI cables have BNC connectors on the ends, SDI requires coaxial cables that are different from those used for sending composite and component video.
This is something that people who might be reading the Cable Bible may not know.
