Hi: I don't know exactly what happens, but this if what I think: - the laptop has an S-video output, so you need a s-video plug on the pc end of the cable; - then the TV has either a scart or an RCA (or both) inputs; - so, since the scart input has no signal to receive the s-video signs (maybe one of the pins is not connected), you need a cable that changes the s-video from the pc to one of video signs recognized by the TV (scart or RCA);
I have suceeeded using a s-video to RCA cable, that plugs to the rca entry of my RCA/s-video to SCART. I think one can also connect the s-video to rca cable directly to the rca input of the tv. One has to use a 800x600 resolution on the TV side (I think due to limitations of the tv format. Best regards Pedro > > That I heard seems to work, but I don't quite understand why.
