What kind of connector is this?

[SaHiL]

I have a Leadtek Winfast S320 II, with TV Out connection. Apparently it is not s-video connection as I thought, because it has six input ports rather than 4 for s-video.

So, I am wondering if anyone of you might know what kind of adapter I can use to get this connected to my TV, and what is this type of connection called.

Much thanks in advance.

It'll work as s-video, it just has the extra pins for composite video and/or component video out with a dongle.


P.S. You should really dust once in a while.

It's a DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung e.V. (the German Institute for Standardization)) connector. A standard connector for TV-out, and it attaches to a dongle which can have S-Video/composite/component branching out from it.

Thanks xtknight.🙂

Thats the problem. It doesn't seem to take a regular 4 pin svideo cable. Are you saying that a 4 pin cable should fit ? Or am I missing your point?

thats a DIN connector (old keyboard port, or for mice, cannot remember)
unless there is a 6pin DIN connector as well 😉

edit:
yes an s-video cable will plug into that port
make sure its facing the right direction (it is keyed)

Welcome to AT.

I don't think a standard s-video is going to stick in there

EDIT: I think you need something like this http://store.yahoo.com/videoware/leadtek6pin.html

Huh? An S-Video will not go in to that port. You need the dongle.
