You will need:

•one set of standard AV cables

You will need:

•one S-video cable

•one pair of standard audio cables

Note:

For better picture quality, if your camcorder has S-video, you can use an S-video cable (plus the standard audio cables) instead of a standard video cable.

Do not connect both a standard video cable and an S-video cable at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.
