Here's the cables I bought.

>>377366916
dunno why but ive never been able to get the optical out to work in anything

>>377366916
are you dumb? white goes in white red goes in red and yellow goes in yellow or Y

>>377367079
no shit, I wouldn't be here if that worked. thanks Cap'n obvious

>>377366916
If those are the only ports on that TV those cables won't work.

>>377367128
can you not read? do what I told you and it'll work

yellow goes in green if your TV supports composite

really? should I have gotten the non-S-Video kind? was told there were 2 kinds, s-video and another kind

>>377366916
You must be 18 or older to post here

>>377367189
I got yellow in green, with white and red in audio ports. nothin.

You need component cables or an older television that still supports composite input.

why did you buy an s-video gc cable if your tv doesn't have an s-video input

What is your IQ OP because you seem to be subhuman <30

>>377366916
Used to have a similar TV when I was younger, I just kept popping the cables in and checking which spots worked

>>377367265
I'm 24, hence why I have a GC in the 1st place. The condescending remarks are unneeded, I'm well aware this is a simple question but it's giving me a hard time

an upconverter would solve this

>>377366916
should have bought KMS cables instead so you could kill yourself with them retard

great job, OP

>>377367392
What's being 24 have to do with owning a gamecube?

>>377367303
now go to your TV's settings an make sure composite is enabled. if your Tv doesn't support composite, then you're fucked and need component or a composite -> HDMI/component

>>377367374
you sound like you're seconds from taking a shit and have no time to explain. fuck off I've been using chan for 10+ years, where the fuck else am I to come for help

Its called googling retard or having basic PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS

or even A. popping the yellow cable into either the green or blue ports

Or B, opening the tv menu and enabling composite then popping the yellow cable into the ports till one works
Or C, googling your tv model number and fucking finding our if it supports copmposite

christ, this is basic stuff

>>377366916
i dont think it will connect.

the red and white cables are audio left and right.

yellow is video. you could just hook it up and turn it on them try the yellow in each of those other holes. doubt it though.

>>377367603
was not in the AV club sry will try again next life.

>>377367632
well its S-video and/or composite. which will work if his TV supports composite. you arent much smarter than OP

>>377366967
Yellow goes in green, white in white, red in red. Those are shit quality s-video cables btw, don't even bother using the black part, your tv won't have a port. Turn the gamecube on and then choose composite video on your tv, viola.

>>377367745
>doesn't even know how to hook up a console

then why the fuck are you even here??? Like, holy shit fuck off back to r/pcmr already

well it was either come here and get directions from those who find these questions easy , or post on yahoo answers and wait for my dad to tell me red is red and yellow is yellow


thanks dads

Sorry you're such a fucking retard dude. 15 seconds in Google would probably solve your answer anyways

>>377368197
what are you talking about?

>>377367392

you could have googled this shit you dumb fuck being 24 and not understanding how to solve simple problems means you have no fucking hope in life.

Ok OP, out a yellow in green and White and Red in the two audio ports at the top. Then go to your TV and flip through the channels until you come across the one showing your game.
If all that doesn't work, you'll have to go into your TV's settings and manually set it to component

If you have your TV's remote, use that. If not, just manually go through the channels until you hit it

>>377368963
It's for a TOSLINK cable, which is used for digital audio. Basically it's just a fancier version that supports stuff like Dolby's surround formats. Any non-antique A/V receiver will have it, but usually people just use HDMI now since it's less cables to worry about. I use it for my pc since the USB blew out on my cheap Chinese dac/amp.

>>377368994
Yep realized that literally as soon as I clicked post.
>>377368830

>>377368963
It provides pretty good audio, far beyond what the TV speakers provide, but I wouldn't consider the investment to be worth it.

>>377368994
Also, this. The video (yellow) cable goes into the Y/V (green) port. If that doesn't work and there's no separate composite port then you're screwed with that TV. Forget about buying Gamecube component cables unless you're willing the shell out an arm and a leg.

real OP here


switching to component didn't work, gonna try the channels

some of you guys depress me and I'm already depressed

>>377369380
it's antique reviewers that have it at this point, it's obsolete.

>Forget about buying Gamecube component cables unless you're willing the shell out an arm and a leg.
What? Can't you just use any composite cables? It's not like it's the xbox that has a proprietary connector.

>>377369740
Upside down photo whoops. Phones are the worst on this site.

>>377369740
Yeah, I didn't realize it was shared composite/component

>>377369727
>>377369641

It's absolutely obsolete, but it's still included on any new receiver I've seen.

>>377369807
Never mind, I'm retarded. Thought OP's picture was of the gamecube not his tv.

>spend a trillion bux on a framemeister

>>377369807
>Can't you just use any composite cables
>composite

He said component, and Gamecube uses proprietary component cables. My understanding is that they but the chip for digital encoding in the cable itself, so the only option is to reverse engineer the cable and make your own (which you could only sell blackmarket since it's proprietary).

If you're plugging something that runs below 720p into an HDTV, you're doing it wrong. What's the resolution of your TV?

>>377370445
uh is this loss?

>>377370237
not everyone in the world is a bottom feeder-condescending-chronic masturbating-short fused virgin Bobby

I'll be nice and respond with a proper answer. Assuming those are the only inputs on the back of your tv you are only going to be able to play via component and component GameCube cables are very expensive. Svideo is an option since it appears you have it but it doesn't look like your tv supports svideo. Look around on your tv for composite input, it'll be a yellow input. The red and white cables are for left and right audio channels.

>wonder how thread could be so shitty and full of retards
>use my magic power
>80% Australians
No wonder.

>>377370745
yeah, not working. plugged in that way and had it on component, had it on channels 2 and 3. nothin. whatdo?

>>377370625
Its called basic problem solving skills ya baiting shitposter.

>>377371769
Set it to "AV" or "Video 1" instead of Component

>>377371769
Your tv needs to be set to composite. Channel 2 and 3 is only used for rf input, something that hasn't been around since the n64. Use your tv remote to select the right video signal, if it's an older or crappy brand tv it might just say 'video 1' or 'video 2'. From that picture it looks like some of the inputs were installed lopsided, lol. That tv looks awful.

This is another thing but it's possible the cables you got are broken.

Ps. Composite is gonna look like cheap on a LCD HDTV.

You all should be ashamed to post in this thread.
Hell has a special place in it for you.
