62 Connecting Other External Devices Using external display devices Connecting the display device If you are connecting a television or other video display device to the computer's S-video port, first refer to the next two subsections. If you are connecting an SVGA monitor, skip to "Connecting an external monitor or projector" on page 63. Selecting video cables To connect a device to the S-video port, you must purchase an S-video cable. For the best video quality, always use a properly shielded cable. HINT: Toshiba recommends using a cable no longer than 20 feet (approximately 6 meters). Using a poor quality cable may result in a dull or fuzzy picture, poor color, ghosting, video noise, or loss of video.
