Audio and Video

Connecting an S-Video Device

Connecting the Audio

The S-video-out jack supports video signals only.

If you are setting up a configuration that combines audio and video functions, such as playing a movie from a DVD to a television, you will need a standard audio cable available from most television, computer, or electronics retailers.

Plug either end of the audio cable into the notebook audio-out jack. Plug the other end of the cable into the audio input (not the audio output) jack on the external device.

Connecting the Video

To transmit video signals through the S-video-out jack, you will need a standard S-video cable available from most television, computer, or electronics retailers.

Plug either end of the S-video cable into the notebook S-video-out jack. Plug the other end of the cable into the video input (not the video output) jack on the external device.

If the S-video-out jack on the notebook is not accessible while the notebook is docked, you can connect the device to the S-video-out jack on the optional port replicator.
