[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1069256, member: 24160"] Haymose: The mdp to DVI adapter outputs digital only. Which means there is no signal being sent to the video adapter as it is expecting an analog signal to be passed through the DVI. The Apple DVI to video adapter will only work on the older MBPs that shipped with a DVI port. There is no such thing as a DVI to video "converter" cable. Those that sell them are scamming their customers, if that's what you really bought. Adapters and converters "are" two different and distinct things - even though some unscrupulous sellers interchange these terms. Your answer can be found in post # 6. A word of warning, imho, it's going to look like caca when you get done making that connection with composite. [/QUOTE]
