Mrmojo6068 asked:


Currently I have a coax cable connecting my digital cable box to my TV. I recently found out that this is not the best connection. It appears that I do not have HDMI or component ports on my cable box but I do have an S-video port. Should I connect the cable box to the tv by S-video? If I do so, will I also need to connect the two with an audio cable?

I don’t understand why any connector (hdmi, component, s-video) from my cable box to tv would improve the connection over coax. The cable line (from the outside) that goes into the cable box is coax. Why would it improve if the cable goes through the coax and then one of the above connections??? Isn’t the quality already diminished due to the coax cable from the outside??? I’m a bit confused…thanks!
PS: I have a 50″ Sony WEGA (720p) projector

We moved to a new place but the cable line that’s attached to the wall is short. What do we do to lengthen the cable or are there ways to connect two different cables in order for the cable to reach where the TV will be placed?
