Thanks for the suggestion.  I just got back from the Apple store with my new cable ($50).  It is easy and it works fine in the iPad video app and YouTube app.  The sales clerk says it also works in other apps like Netflix and Hulu, although I haven't tested that.  It did not work for me in VLC nor the ABC app. 

In a few days I leave for my trip.  This cable will come in handy, but first I have some videos to transcode into the Apple approved codec.   Thanks again.
