Selecting video cables
To connect a device to the S-video port, you must purchase an
S-video cable. To connect a device to the HDMI Out port,
you must purchase an HDMI cable.
S-video cables and HDMI cables are not included with your
computer.
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.
