5: Start movie and watch on TV.

S video cable does both sound and video.

Doesn't this HDMI cable on Amazon carry both audio and video to the TV?
My tv in my patio has only the HDMI cable as a feed and gets both video and sound.
If it does, this $15 item is well worth as seems the easiest way out of this.
