OT: need cable going from video camera to vcr but which one?

[robfilms]

i have an older sony digital8 camcorder, the dsr-trv120.

i shot an hours tape and now i wanted to export from the camera to my vcr to dub the tape.

there is a svhs in/out, a firewire in/out, and a plug that looks the size of a headphone mini plug and is labelled audio/video.

in an old brown bag buried deep in the family junk closet, i have a rather extensive collection of composite cables, radio string antenna, some leftover cat5, but nothing that resembles a miniplug on one end and a 3 composite (1 video/2audio) on the other.

i've been to the radoshack site and couldn't find anything.

i went to the sony site but couldn't even find this older model listed.

anyone know what this type of a/v acble is called?

anyone have any idea where i can purchase that same cable, either brick & morter or web would be fine.

thanks in advance for sharing your expereinces

be well

I don't know the official name, but for the analog audio out, you need it. The S-VHS out port will be video only. I have 2 Sony mini-DV cameras, and both use that cable.

Shouldn't that be DCR, not DSR?

for under $7 shipped, jump right now, don't even think about it. That is the 4 segment 1/8th mini jack that you need.

thanks all

just did a buy it now

racerx is right, can't go too wrong for $7.

wish i had a paypal account to get it to me faster

never felt comfortable w/paypal

and the idea of my credit card on sitting file just waiting to be for some clown to crash the firewall.

again, thanks for the heads up

be well
