DVD playing on PowerBook 12'' -> how to connect to TV?

[Per Brodersen]

Dear listers,

Just wanted to watch a DVD on my TV via my new PowerBook 12''.
Have the adapter of the S-Video out and do get a video signal , but no sound
from the TV.
In the early days, I had a 466 MHz Clamshell iBook with composite out that
made it easy to connect 'Book and TV with just one cable. Tried that one now
- audio yes, video no.

My question: Do I really have to connect my PowerBook's audio out to the TV
now (i. e. fiddling with *two* cables instead of one)?

And - is that what they call "advanced technology"?


Quite impressed and thankful for any (audio) input -

Per
