I would liek to use my laptop computer to play DVDs on a TV. When I travle to my paretns shore house they do nto have a DVD player so it would be nice to use the laptop instead of purchasing a stand alone DVD player.

Yes I know that DVD players are super cheap - just humor me and help me in my search.

The TV has audio (2) and video (1) RCA type inputs. There is no S-viedo input on the TV. The laptop only has an s-video output and no RCA type connections.

So what I need is a s-viedo to RCA cable. Need a male s-viedo end that will split off to 3 RCA male connectors. I definitly want to have both the audio and viedo connectiosn coming out of the s-viedo.

I have found some of these connectors in the intenet but they all seemed to cost around 15-20 dollars. Somethign seems funny about that to me. I would think a cable like this could be had for 5-10 dollars. Heck they have a DVD player at wallmart for $30 so how the heck coudl a simple cable like that cost more than half that???

IF you know of a place to find these sheep let me know.
