Does there exist a VGA to S-Video cable that is longer than 3 inches?

Question

I am trying to connect my laptop to my TV so I can watch movies that are on my laptop on a bigger screen. I have been told that VGA to S-Video is the best option (am I wrong?). My question is: where can I find a cable that is longer than 3 inches long?

Ebay has plenty of options, but I have yet to see one with a reasonable length. see for yourself. http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?sofocus=bs&sbrftog=1&dfsp=32&catref=C6&from=R40&satitle=vga+to+s-video+cable&sacat=-1%26catref%3DC6&sargn=-1%26saslc%3D2&sadis=200&fpos=ZIP%2FPostal&sabfmts=1&saobfmts=insif&ftrt=1&ftrv=1&saprclo=&saprchi=&fsop=32%26fsoo%3D2

Please direct me to a place where I can find a longer VGA to S-Video Cable!!

thanks.

Answer 1

Hm: VGA is RGB

S-Video or Composite is a combination of Luma/Chroma, so I am not sure how this setup will work!

Plus, why do you want to see your laptop screen at 480i ! It will look HORRIBLE.

Gosh... all you have to do is Google "VGA to S-video"!
