#Super deal (2009-06-11) Super item, excellent packaging with lot of care -- Works like a charm. Very good customer service. For those who are leaving -ve feeback about this item, my advice is polish up your knowledge about how to configure TVs svideo. My display was not showing properly until I used the nvidia control panel(cloning option) on my laptop and then changed the video setting on the TV to s-video otherwise it shows nothing. No need to change resolution or anything. Thanks IS electronics. Will buy again, for sure!

#Does the job (2009-05-30) This works absolutely fine. It will only play B/W if you don t change the output settings on your laptop (resolution will need to be reduced). This cable let s me watch videos (IN COLOUR) from my Apple Macbook (With an Apple MiniDVI - Video adapter). My tele played in B/W to start but just reduced output resolution to 640x480(stretched) to play in colour, no problems.

#very happy (2009-03-26) There are two sides to the review. Firstly, I received the product well before the delivery estimate (just in two days). The product was neatly packaged and found in good condition. Secondly, it does its job well, i. e connect laptop to t. v. And I didn t have any problems in getting the picture in color as described by other customers here. I am using SONY VAIO laptop. I didn t adjust my settings in computer. This product also has a audio jack. When you plug this jack into audio-slot of laptop, you can have a good quality of sound on t. v. Very impress...

#WARNING: Black & White only!!! (2009-02-04) I purchased this S-Video cable hoping to connect my laptop to our televsion, however after lots of fiddling - I was still only able to get Black and White. Some people say if you mess around with the settings you can get colour. . . but I have yet to achieve this. Very disappointed. Oh, one more thing - works only with PAL (UK) Laptops, not NTSC ones from North America.

#Black and white? Great for retro TV maybe (2008-02-28) I was very disappointed when this cable arrived and didn t even let me use colour on any TV I tried it on. Great quality. . if black and white picture is your thing.

This item is a 5m S-Video (SVHS) Cable

#Note this is male-to-male! (2009-02-28) This cable is suggested as a companion purchase to a short s-video to SCART cable. Seemed like a good idea, as I wanted my laptop to be more than 1. 5m from the TV. I had assumed it was a male-female cable but it s not! Neither of the male connectors on the ends of this lead will plug onto the male connector of the s-video to SCART cable!

A stylish adaptor used to plug into a scart socket to allow the connection of a S-VHS and/or Phono cables. Signal direction can be changed easily using the in-built switch. Gold plated contacts assist in optimising signal transmission.

#Very good (2009-02-01) Arrived like a flash. Very well made and very good value. Have used this seller again and must say the products are of high quality and exceptionally good value.

#Good piece of wire :-) (2009-05-01) This cable works great, as it connects my computer (s-video) to our CRT TV Scart. Morover, it came with an in-built 3. 5mm audio cable wich, if you plug it in you computer, transfers the sound to the TV! It is a very good option especially if you have a laptop with too weak speakers. The only thing someone might not like is that the cable is only 1. 5m long, so it might not be enough for them.

#S-Video(PC DVD VHS) Out to Scart (TV) Device Cable (2009-04-14) I purchased this lead to enable me to link a laptop to a large TV - which it does. Some of the other reviews refer to the fact that it can be rather fiddly getting the adjustments right to get the optimum picture.

#Works like a treat, and it s cheap (2008-11-12) On a Toshiba laptop with a built-in S-Video port under Ubuntu 8. 10, this worked straight out the packet. Turn computer off, plug cable into computer, plug into TV, turn computer on and there was my laptop screen on the TV! It was in colour without having to adjust any settings, just plug and go. The quality isn t great--I can t read text as it normally appears on a webpage. But then, it s only three quid. I brought this for watching videos through my computer on my TV, and it works a treat for that.

#Fantastic (2007-12-18) This product is great, allows you to view your laptop on your TV IN COLOUR!!! :-). Just make sure you follow instructions in you laptop hadbook and plug the cable into the laptop with the laptop switched off. Then the screen may appear in Black and White but you simply change some settings in the advanced display settings and it will be shown in colour :-). . . just look on the internet for help on changing the settings to make it work. And btw, it is not just this product that will mean you have to change the settings, you will with all the scart to s-viedeo, ...

Ex-Pro SVHS Video Cable. Use for transmission of video signal s SVHS Connection. Gold Finished connectors. 2 Year Ex-Pro Warranty.

#Does the job (2009-04-06) I bought this to connect a laptop to a TV (CRT, not LCD, so only SCART, phono and S-Video connections). S-Video was the best connection common to the laptop and the TV, and the pictures via the cable were as good as can be expected from S-Video - ie pretty good. Delivery from Ex-Pro was very swift as well.

#Gold as promised (2008-11-25) Impressed with item. Enabled me to run my laptop to the S input channel of my Sony TV (not HD). Excellent delivery service. Very happy with purchase
