Sounds like you have the "Apple Video System" - if you had the coax jack it would be the "Apple TV/Video System" and if you had two coax jacks it would be the "Apple TV/FM/Video System". What the RCA and S-Video jacks you have are good for is connecting a camcorder or VCR or video game or whatever and displaying it's video on your Mac's screen, capture QuickTime Movies or Still images, etc. I have a similar if not identical card in my 6400 that I use with an old camcorder and video conferencing software. OTOH - you could have a video-output system installed, for displaying your Mac's video on a TV or recording to a VCR or whatever, but the video-in system seems to be much more popular and common. Hopefully someone here on the list will chime in with a way to tell if your RCA and S-Video jacks are for output or input. -John -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
