Using the S-Video-out jack
The 7-pin S-Video-out jack connects the computer to an optional S-Video device such as a television, VCR, camcorder, overhead projector, or video capture card.
The computer can support one S-Video device connected to the S-Video-out jack, while simultaneously supporting an image on the computer display or any other supported external display.
NOTE To transmit video signals through the S-Video-out jack, you need an S-Video cable, available from most electronics retailers. If you are combining audio and video functions, such as playing a DVD movie on your computer and displaying it on your television, you also need a standard audio cable, available from most electronic retailers, to connect to the headphone jack.
To connect a video device to the S-Video-out jack:
1.Plug one end of the S-Video cable into the S-Video-out jack on the computer.
2.Connect the other end of the cable to the video device, according to the manufacturer's instructions included with the device.
3.Press the fn+f4 keys to switch the image between display devices connected to the computer.
NOTE If the S-Video-out jack on the computer is not accessible because the computer is connected to an optional expansion product, connect the S-Video cable to the S-Video-out jack on the expansion product.
