JT! Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Why are you needing to convert from S-Video if your laptop has an output for it? S-Video (usually) consists of a 4 pin plug (ground, ground, intensity and colour) and will carry video only. You'll need the 3.5mm audio jack to carry the sound to the television, however you're laptop will still play through the speakers if the sound is not a problem?I'm not i don't think. I as just asking for the video only, the laptop has an s-video port and the tv has an s-video port too. It also has the yellow jack input as well, so i was just asking which would be best to go with (video only) but i'm guessing it doesn't make a difference?

anzo Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 To keep it simple I'd go with the S-Video cable mate End of the day we could spend hours recommended all sorts of different cables that may work, but the S-Video seems a cert.By the way, its a very common cable if you have an electronics store nearby? It'll save you waiting on/paying for postage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
