bigway 4 #1 October 18, 2006 Hey, Have a HP series dv 5000 laptop. It has a s-video output and i am trying to conect it to my LCD television. So the s-video plug goes from my laptop to my big screen and plugs into s-video (AV3). I have no picture though? I it only meant to play certain types through certain programmes or is it meant to play anything? I am trying to watch my skydiving videos and movies that i have on my laptop on the big screen, am i missing some vital component or software here? The S-video plug on the laptop is a built in plug. would appreciate any help, Thanks. .Karnage Krew Gear Store . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
