The S-Video–out jack, available only on select models, supports
video signals only.
If you are setting up a configuration that combines audio and
video functions, such as playing a DVD movie on your computer
and displaying it on your television, you need a standard 3.5-mm
audio cable available from most computer or electronics retailers.
Connect the stereo end of the audio cable to the audio-out
(headphone) jack on the computer. Connect the other end of the
cable into the audio-in jack on the external device. For more
information about the computer audio-out jack, refer to the
“Using the Audio-Out (Headphone) Jack” section earlier in this
chapter.

S/PDIF audio support is available only through an optional
expansion product.
