Typically, the sound output from a
computer comes from speakers connected
to your sound card. If you prefer, you can
hear or record the sound output from your
computer using the same TV or video
recorder you connect to your graphics card.
To do this, you need an audio cable with a
stereo jack on one end and two RCA
connectors on the other end. If you don't
have this type of cable, you can buy one at
most consumer electronics stores.

cable into the
connector on your sound card.
Plug the other end of the cable into the

SCART adapter

Some video devices in Europe only have SCART
connectors. This type of connector includes video
and audio, whereas composite video or S-video
connectors include only video.
If your TV or video recorder only uses a SCART
connector, you need a SCART cable adapter to
connect your computer to that TV or video recorder.
You need a SCART adapter that has at least 2 or 3
connectors – 1 video and 1 or 2 audio. The video
connector has to be either composite or S-video. If
you don't already have this type of adapter, it should
be available at your local electronics store. To find out
if your TV or your video recorder supports
composite or S-video, see its documentation.
To use a SCART adapter, connect the SCART end of the adapter to your TV or video recorder, then
connect the other end to your Matrox TV adapter and sound card.
* If your computer has no audio
computer sound output goes to the video device you connected to.
