Commonly used on laptops with 7 pin S-Video jacks. Outputs video by S-Video connection and audio by 3.5mm headphone plug. Works great for watching online TV and streaming video from Netflix. Not recommended for using your TV as a computer monitor as the resolution is limited to the output capability of your PC. Compatibility Note: This 7 pin adapter cable is configured to the industry standard which is the same as a standard 4 pin S-video cable. The 3 additional pins have no function. Some computers have a non-standard 7 pin S-Video jack configuration that utilize the 3 additional pins. We recommend testing your S-Video jack with a 4 pin S-Video cable to assure compatibility before you purchase this adapter cable. Laptop/PC display must be configured to output through the S-Video port. Video quality depends on the capability of the PC. We recommend experimenting with different screen resolutions to get the best picture possible.

snooo53 (Minnesota)Hooked it up to my laptop and TV. Video quality looks great, but audio is moderately noisy. I tried hooking up another stereo 1/8 to stereo RCA audio cable and the interference was gone. Strange since they were both budget cables about the same thickness... they really should have beefed up the audio cable shielding like they did to the video half. Also before you buy this really consider how much cable you need... 6ft is a little on the short side unless your laptop or component is right next to the TV. While the length issue is clearly my fault, the audio issue is poor design.
As to the other review complaining about a 7 pin connector, I used this 4 pin s-video cable with the Nvidia 7 pin jack on my laptop and it works and detects just fine. The extra pins are used for component video, at least on mine.
