Isn't the commonly used name for composite cables, "AV"?

Yeah you need phono adapters (male->male). I have some so I can input stereo audio into my PC soundcard to record off the PS2 and stuff.

Well there isn't a Maplin near me, I had a quick look at their website and they didn't have anything. I've emailed them anyway just in case.

Right here goes...

I recently bought a mini TV. Where normal TVs have a SCART connector, which in turn has the Video and Audio (composite cables) connectors, this one has a USB port instead. Connecting the provided USB cable should be okay then, right? Well it would, except the composite cables on the end are male. Now, as the GC (and also PS2) connectors are also male, that leaves me in the lurch.

There ya go, that's why I need a converter thingy.

Yeah, just need an adaptor of some sort to connect two pairs (or should that be triplets?) of composite cable to each other, both male.

Tsk, search engines are so diluted... typing in composite cable doesn't exactly help.
