thanks.

now i need it to strech about 35ft.

will i get signal lose at that range.

if you dont want your signal to go after that far, get some moster cable wires, those are the best i know of. or better yet, just get an entirely new cable and not just the connector, but that will cost ya more, but trust me, if you want it to sound great, its all worth it

With long runs s-video cables will hold the signal better than composite video cables so you should do is buy a long enough s-video cable to reach your computer. Make sure it is a well shielded 75ohm cable.

Also get a s-video to composite connector( female s-video to male RCA/composite), I don't recommend Monster cable since they are crap and highly overpriced. Again all you need here is a well shielded 75ohm cable.

Your local Radio Shack should have both cables that you need. If they don't you can probably get them online for at www.partsexpress.com.

If you are hell bent on spending alot at least get some really good cable with your money from www.bettercables.com instead of the overpriced, inferior Monster stuff!

WOW, finally a semi home theater question I could help with. Just don't ask me to answer anty technical computer questions yet:)

P.S. Don't even bother with the site abovethe cables are cheap and extremely overpriced. They aren't any better than the cables than OEM cables, just 10x the price!
