[QUOTE="RONE, post: 390727, member: 29347"] I want to hook up a 15" 2GHz Intel Core Duo Macbook Pro to my non-HD tv. I'm not doing this to use it an as an external monitor, so the less-than-perfect resolution of the tv is not a factor. By staring at the output port, I have determined that my MBP has a DVI-I dual link output port. My understanding from searching is that I'll need this for the video: [url]http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=17887CE1&nplm=M9319G/A[/url] and something along these lines for the audio (can be picked up at Radio Shack for cheaper): [url]http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=4D3ECD40&nplm=M9573LL/A[/url] My confusion is with the video cable. I would like to use the component input on my tv (or at least the s-video) over the basic red/yellow/white setup (of which I believe the yellow is video?). Will this apple adapter let me do that? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
