Well here another problem that I was a little worried, it is able to see video on a common television, but I only had black and white image.
Hardware:
- TV (brand pork) with RCA
- Notebook Dv 6420 the nvidia card and S-video output.
- s-video cable (4 pin) to RCA (video-white-red)
Cable S-Video to RCA (note that this cable is as hot as the video shows white connector)
The cable said he had engaged in a nvidia fx 5200 card and I could always see color around what was shown on TV. But one day it occurs to me upgrading the nvidia driver and did the problem (whatever that was shown on TV was seen in black and white).
After searching the network related information, only had comments such
"Old took the option to clone ..., 0 need to leave the composite video option instead of s-video, etc. ... O change from PAL to NTSC "things had obviously already done to no avail.
Until around I found a post on a forum (can not remember) who commented that since the video card has 7 output pins could not convert the image as it was using a normal 4-pin cable. In this reasoning this person says it is possible (but very carefully) to bypass the pins that are farthest from the plastic guide ... (reference photo left),

Pines to be bridged
... to which I did not find much matter because as soon as I had run the cable did not think it could be the solution, but as we found answers were not tried.The result was something not expected "TV color could be seen again."
Ingredients:
- 2 cm copper filament (usually found on cable outlets or cables Speaker)
- 1 needle
-
steady hand - faith
First, as is very complicated to try to bridge the pins, what I did was bend the wire in circles, then wrap the wire by turning and leaving holes at each end (these holes may make them with a needle) with the same needle after each pin to the wire with the exception of doing a bridge to the other pins or the metal edge of the connector.

Cahchaaaaaaannnnnnn !!!!!
As always I hope this little blogging will serve some mortal like me who have had the same problem. Greetings PD: With respect to the configuration that must be done so you can see the image on a conventional TV is:
- first be clear what kind of TV we have (PAL NTSC or Multistandard)
- Use in clone mode (if we see the same on the monitor and TV) - Note that if you want to use the clone mode to specify whether the monitor or TV is the main to watch movies on the device.
- Using DualView (to select what you want in each device)
- Sometimes you need to restart with the cable connected to TV (with TV on) for the video card it can be recognized .
