Hi! We have a Dell Inspiron 8500 laptop, which came with a TV-Out adapter. It’s an S-Video/RCA adapter; has the S-Video jack on one end, that plugs into the laptop (it looks like a PS/2 mouse port), and 2 female RCA jacks on the other end. We tried hooking it up to a TV with a male/male RCA cable, but are unable to get movies to display on the TV (there are no problems with the RCA cable). We’re trying to watch .mpg files; is this the problem? Will the TV-Out only work with certain formats, such as DVDs?
