for the video ....you need a adapter (Male S-video and female RCA(RED color has to go in there). the Adapter usually come with your graphic card... so check your graphic card box.

for audio use the computer audio.

ask me if you have more question.

You can also get audio jack to RCA converters to use.

And I believe Yellow is the video part of the RCA cables.
Red and white are audio.
(of course as long as the cable goes from video to video, or audio to audio, doesn&#39;t matter what the color is)

Yes, S-video is strictly video.
