connecting laptop to tv
« on: Jul 25, 2006 at 03:37 PM »
hello!
i have been looking for an s-cable to connect my laptop to my tv, so i can use the laptop as a dvd player.  have looked everywhere but could not find such cable.  maybe somebody here can help?  the top pic is the s-cable connector on the laptop, and the bottom pic is the rca jacks on the tv.

makikisakay na rin sa query ni @asr, will the the ordinary 4 pin s-video to s-video works in
connecting a laptop (7 pins) to a TV (with 4 pins s-video). if not is there an s-video cable with
7 pins and 4 pins on the other end?

Up ko lang.
Where can I find an s-video connector from laptop to tv?
laptop (7 pins) to TV (4 pins s-video)

why not use the VGA (monitor out) instead? kung kaya ng TV mo, like LCS TV's or Plasma TV's, VGA to component cable lang oks na.

The 4 PIN S-video MALE should work with the 7 PIN S-Video of your laptop. I have try this one before using a 4 PIN S-video (male on both end from ace hardware). but does not broadcast any audio on the TV. rather, audio should be heard through the speaker of your laptop.

as i remember 7 pin S-video is an i/o or input and out put..  i saw it also in Handyman. or try to ask computer stores if they have a cable..

connecting TV into PC/Laptop is easy but make it sure that the TV is compatible to the frequency of VGA.
it has a configuration in the properties of VGA.
