    Is there is a Video Card that uses coaxials instead a s-cable?

    My TV doesnt have a s-cable plugin. So I was wondering if there a video card/out to tv that uses coaxials?

    I don't think you can get them but I could be wrong. You could feed the s-video from the video card into a VCR and then coax from the VCR to TV - that would work too.

    You should be able to get a s-video to composite converter (if you're VCR has a composite input) - it normally comes free with the graphics card.

    What does the input on your video look like? - it may be a bit different cos I&#39;m in the UK but here composite is three little round holes coloured red, white and yellow.

    Well, from S-video to RCA. My graphics card came with a little adapter that changes the s-video on the card to a RCA port - you then just run a RCA cable into the video (I&#39;m assuming here RCA is the same thing as composite - it sounds like they are).

    Like tikibonbon said, even if you don&#39;t get one with the card you could get one pretty easy from an electronics store).

    edit: an example
