Hi Darren
I hope I am not too late, with the connection
pin 1,2.3.4.6.7. player A
pin 9,10,11,12,13,14, player B
pin 5 Grd ,
pin 8 & 15 5 volts

pin 1 (&9) common to X & Y pots
pin 2 (&10) to a button (or press switch)
pin 3 (&11) wiper of X control
pin 4 (&12) common to both buttons
pin 6 (&13) wiper of Y control
pin 7 (&14) to the other button

the other ends of the X,Y pots are left open (I think they should be
connected to the wiper) if you get into it.

(Don't thank me just thank the Dick Smith catalogue)

===================================
Getting back to the standards,
I have a lot of unopened Email from this group because of the large Email
volume, and I am trying to finish
C++ studies before doing any more PIC work

one thing that bugs me more than any other thing like I would think of 10
mHz as 10 MHZ (not 10 milliHertz)
(I think who ever gets confused is just trying to wind us up)

that the Data & address lines
D0 to D7 or A0 to 15
Why don't we all standardise and go D1 to D8 or A1 and A16

Then if the highest line is Data 14, Then  2 to the power of 14 is 16,384
(BINGO) no need to look around to see if their is Data line D0 so you can
add one,

I rest my case (for ever, with this group)
