video (yellow) connection.
The two additional connectors carry the left
(white) and right (red) channel audio signals.
S-Video cable. When the video adapter is
connected to the projector, use this cable to
connect a video component, such as a DVD
player or VCR, to the projector.

adapter is connected to the projector, use this
cable to connect a video component, such as
a progressive-scan DVD player or satellite dish,
to the projector.
