I'm trying to hook up an LCD monitor I have to my Verizon Fios cable box...Here's what I have for inputs in each:
LCD monitor has:
- DC in
- DVI
- D-sub
- Line in (I believe for audio)
Cable box has:
- RF in
- Digital Audio optical
- S-video
- Data
- USB
- IR
What kind of cables do I need in order to watch TV on my LCD monitor? Thanks so much,
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

You'll need more than a cable. You'll need a scan converter to go from s-video to VGA. Something like this:

If your monitor has HDCP support on the DVI-D input, it may work with the FIOS box set to 480p or 720p output. Otherwise you will need a converter box.

Wait. This isn't a high def FIOS box? In that case ignor the above or get the high def box.Recommends: Kiva.org - Loans that change lives.
