Default the X-Type/S-Type Rear entertainment controller disected

I got the RES kit to install in my XJ, but decided to pop open the video controller to see if I can fit it the proper XJ RES switchpack (I have one laying around).

Anyhow here is the writeup of what's inside. I plan to replace the media player board with something better since it's quite outdated anyway.

Default Connected Raspberry Pi to the video switch board

I updated the doc with info how to connect a Raspberry PI to the video switch board and added a configuration file so the Pi can read the Jaguar remote control keys.

Here is a picture of my test rig.
