    Hello Porkie,

    Just a quick question. Do you have a cable receiver box?

    If so there should be an ouput for s-video on the rear of the cable box?

    Keep up posted,

    Azeke

        Well then you will require some sort of tuner to identify specific channel frequencies. So no you can not just use an adaptor. You will require a set to box from your service provider or a display with a built in tuner.

            Well you could do that, it should have a tuner but the best connection you'll likely get out of that is composite. You can probably get a composite to s-video connector from that but I would imagine your display has a composite input anyhow right?

                rca jacks ARE composite connections
