What cable do I need to perform this connection

0

I want to output audio from my laptop to my TV. I output the video using VGA.

Here is the picture from my manual. enter image description here

I need options 6. The one where there's a VGA cable and a sound cable.

I don't understand what's the input on the TV. I'm pretty sure that the output from the laptop is a 3.5 audio cable.

Can someone tell me, what the hell is that audio input slot for option 6.

Just in case, here is the link to the manual: http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201104/20110426143830850/BN68-01900B-00L02-110426.pdf

P.S. The picture is from page 13 of the manual. The TV model is Samsung LN46B610

Here is a picture of the back of the TVenter image description here

The slot that corresponds to option 6 is right of the blue VGA cable

Do you have an actual photo of the back of the TV. – plugwash – 2015-10-30T21:44:06.423

Off topic for EE. That said, ten bucks says the actual jack is a regular 3.5mm one. 1, you cut off the manual part 6, and 2, you don't show the actual tv back – cde – 2015-10-30T21:46:44.417

nono. that's the entire part 6. I'll make a picture of the back of the TV now. give me 10 minutes please – Jenia Ivanov – 2015-10-30T21:49:13.993

I found a picture of the board on eBay. It's a regular 3.5 mm jack. – cde – 2015-10-30T21:58:38.200

Thanks a lot. So this means it's a 3.5 to 3.5 cable? Is the TV female and the laptop male? – Jenia Ivanov – 2015-10-30T22:17:06.653

It looks to me as if the audio cable is a standard 3.5mm stereo male to 3.5mm stereo male cable. This is readily available from many places or you can make your own cable. – Dwayne Reid – 2015-10-30T22:39:45.770

A "patch" or "aux" cable. Dollar store. – cde – 2015-10-30T23:10:14.197

"VGA with audio" is a standard VGA cable with a 3.5mm audio cable stuck to it. – crasic – 2015-10-31T03:19:47.080

A regular 3.5mm stereo male to male cable, typically known as a patch or aux cable, is needed. The jack is a 3.5mm trs connector.
