You know what? I HAVE one of those modulators somewhere! I bought it so I
could hook the little dvd player to the TV in the bedroom but never used it.
I just need to find it.

I probably won't be able to do this until next week since I have company
coming for the weekend.

Thank you!

You may be able to find an S-Video to composite adapter at Radio Shack, or
other locations.

Expensive, but I'm sure they have just the smaller adapters, as well.

You could also consider one of the RF modulators that they have available
that will do S-video/audio in to Coax out.
