    The black plug is an s-video and the others are RCA plugs, one is for video and the other two are for audio (left and right).

        Maybe, but I wouldn't want to bet money on it.

          Places like Radio Shack, Best Buy, Fry's, and the sort should have it. You could try calling first, ask them for an S-video to AV component cable.

            Have a look here:
            http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10996356

            Is that what you're looking for?

                                     The picture posted at the top of the topic is what i need; i appreciate your help though, but the one end does not have an s-cable end; the composite video end is correct, however.
