Connecting an External Video
Device
You can view videos and images from an external
device on your notebook. Depending upon the
configuration of the device, you will need to
purchase either a composite RCA video cable
(Figure 9) or an S-Video 4-pin cable (Figure 11).
You will also need to connect an audio cable, as
described in “Connecting an External Audio
Device” on page 34. The video cables use
different ports, as described below.
