  It appears to have two BNC connections for video and single RCA for audio. But, what's throwing me off is the <em>gen-lock</em> label? I've not run across that before. I'm looking to get a <strong>2-BNC to single S-Video cable</strong>. Does that seem like the proper setup? I found a manual for the TRV-16 but it only shows a single RCA jack for video and another for audio, so it wasn't any help.

Comments.Text: does yours also have an s-video output? If it does, this might work better. Genlock is a clocked output to provide video clock to any input device that uses it. In this example he uses the S-video out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0GPhV_XNrA

Comments.Text: Thanks for replying. No, the only connections it has are the three shown. I'm thinking that the two BNC are the S-Video out, but trying to confirm before I spend money on an adapter.

  It appears to have two BNC connections for video and single RCA for audio. But, what's throwing me off is the *gen-lock* label? I've not run across that before. I'm looking to get a **2-BNC to single S-Video cable**. Does that seem like the proper setup? I found a manual for the TRV-16 but it only shows a single RCA jack for video and another for audio, so it wasn't any help.
