So its somewhat determined that the lightning HDMI adapter is quite complex and is communicating 'Airplay' protocol over USB and translating that into an HDMI signal.

So...how does the 30pin HDMI adapter work? Does it simply route a HDMI Audio+video signal from the device itself? If so, I take it that some of the pins must be repurposed from their legacy purposes. I haven't been able to find any teardowns of the 30pin version released in 2011.
