How to Use S Video on NVIDIA Graphics Cards

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Dave Andrews, and I'm going to show you how to use S video on a NVIDIA graphics card. Now not all NVIDIA graphics cards come with S video output. So you have to when you're purchasing it, make sure that it has the little round connection for S video, 'cause an S video cable like the one I have here, is a round connection. I'm going to plug it into my laptop which is using an NVIDIA card and does have an S video output. Basically you just have to line up the little pegs here with the holes in your output port. So let's just plug this in. Now on a laptop, you might not have to do this on a desktop, but on a laptop you have to hold down the function key, and then click on the little icon, it's on my F4 key, it looks kind of like a monitor. And that tells it basically to switch outputs. So now if I were to then go to the television or whatever that I had the S video plugged into, it would be showing a copy of my screen on that television. I'm Dave Andrews, and I've just showed you how to use an S video with an NVIDIA graphics card."
