Before I throw this cable away, I am curious what it is and for what
use?

The cable is labeled: AWM 2919 E11932-J 30V VW-1 Low voltage
computer cable copartner

Anyone?

Take a picture of it, upload the picture to some free online file
storage site (e.g., imageshack), and post a link here.

Wow! I would not have thought that. The ends are not HDMI - to me
anyway. I am going to try to post two pics to the site noted in prior
post. First time for me, so I might have trouble.

OK - I tried. Here are my pics. They tell you anything?

I swear the ends look like PS/2, but not quite.

Links to image files uploaded there do not go to PHP pages (server-side
scripts). They are a link to an actual file, as in:

You links to a script (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Php) ends up
redirected to:

Apparently ImageShack changed their upload requirements. As I recall
from past use, you could upload without having to create an account
(based on some valid e-mail address you provided to get the confirmation
e-mail). You could just upload and never have an account. When I just
tried, they force me to create an account. That sucks so I'll have to
find someplace better to upload publicly accessible pics.

Since you created an account, it now looks like you have to make that
file publicly accessible. When I go to the link you provided, the site
demands that I login to see your pic. I'm not bothering to create an
account to login to see what should've been publicly shared content.
See if you can make the picture so it is publicly accessible from your
account so other non-account users can see it. It that's not possible,
no one except ImageShack account holders will be able to see your pics.

tinypic.com appears to not require registration and account creation.
You can create an account there but you don't have to. As an
experiment, I uploaded a photo (http://tinypic.com/r/142r88o/6) and
there was no requirement to create an account.

HDMI connector (cable end):
http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/hdmi-connector-diagram.gif

There are HDMI-to-DVI converter cables (since HDMI simply adds audio
transport that gets dropped in the conversion). They look like:
http://pinouts.ru/Video/dvi_pinout.shtml

None of those are small round connectors that look like a PS/2
connector, as shown here:
http://pinouts.ru/Inputs/PS2Mouse_pinout.shtml
http://pinouts.ru/Inputs/KeyboardPC6_pinout.shtml

Do you have an example of a PS/2-looking connector that is an HDMI
connector? The only one that I recall that looks something like a PS/2
connector is the S-video or component video connectors. You find them
used on TVs to go to VCRs/DVRs and on [older AGP] video cards. They
look like http://tinyurl.com/78oux7a and http://tinyurl.com/7ca7jal.

Clear cookie cache, and try again.

Then you won't need to create an account.

Have you tried this?

I use Google Chrome which includes the Click&Clean extension which is
configured to discard cookies on exit. In Google Chrome, go to
chrome://chrome/settings/cookies to see what cookies you currently have.
Because of the cleanup on exit, I don't have any when I first load
Google Chrome so there are none to clear. I get the overlay frame
requiring me to give an e-mail address, and there is no "X" button to
get rid of the overlay so I can get at the URLs under the "Links to
share your image".

In IE8 with it configured to flush it TIF/cookie data on exit, and even
by using CCleaner that will delete all the TIF and cookie files, I see
behavior is different; however, in IE8, I used its InPrivate Filtering
(registry hacked to always be on) and an imported XML file to block
tracking sites and there are errors on that web page due to this. If I
exit IE8, use CCLeaner to get rid of any remnants after IE8 exited,
start IE8, and disable the InPrivate Filtering, I still see there is a
JSON error but now I see the same overlay window that I see in Google
Chrome which prevents me from getting at the URLs to copy them.

You know how to disable the CSS popup at that site?

Whether I use Google Chrome or IE8 to visit the OP's link, I still get
redirected to the "You must login" web page. The OP did not provide a
valid URL link from that site to the file there.

The OP has not succeeded in posting a picture yet.
So following his link is a waste of time at the moment.

I can do a test run, and prove it still works.

First, I'll clear cookies on my browser. And use the dialog as a
test image, for fun.

You click the image after the "Upload successful" step. Eventually,
you get an image you can take a URL from, and then you have your
desired result. As in this. I usually attempt to get a raw
URL to the image, so there's no advertising for the intended
recipient.

http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/2429/cookiebegone.gif

Now, if I wanted to post another picture, my first step
would be clearing cookies again.

I don't have an account there, and have posted quite a few images.
None of which I can remove, edit or otherwise change.

I've occasionally run into one of their "test servers", where
the thing is quite insistent on applying for an account. And
in such cases, dropping my IP address and getting a new address,
clearing cookies, and I'm "on the road again".

There was a way to make the pictures 'public', which I did. I
thought that would make them universally accessible, but I guess not.
I'll look things over again.

Hi once again Paul.

On imageshack.us , there is nothing to adjust. It's a matter,
at some point, of right-clicking the image as it appears on their
web page, and copying the URL of the image. And then posting that.

For example, when I uploaded an image, selected "Do not resize",
and right-clicked on the resulting image a copied the URL, I got this

http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/2429/cookiebegone.gif

And that's my test image, in the same resolution as when it was uploaded.

I did not have to open an account, to upload the image. Or adjust anything.
All the images I upload are public, because there is no other option.

They also accept relatively large images. Like my disk drive test results.

Could be it's a remnant cable you originally received with a TV, VCR,

You are so smart! I guess that is why they pay you the big bucks.
I pulled my DVD player out and tried the cable - it fit the S-Video
plug exactly. I looked at the pin-out in the above URL - looks
S-Video all right.

I ASSumed via the cable info he posted before he posted the pics that it was
an HDMI cable. That same AWM2919 spec he gave isused in a HDMI cable i found
online. Once he posted the pic showing it was a Y/C cable, then the issue was
solved. What was the point in your response to me, an attempt to make me look
bad? All i was trying to do was help with what little info the OP posted.

The part number printed on the cable, could be for the raw cable itself. If
the cable came in 1000 foot spools, that number could be printed on it every
couple of feet for the entire length of the spool.

If a manufacturer was large enough, they might be able to get spools of cable
made, without ratings printed on them. Or other distracting information. But
if the manufacturer is smaller, then the cable jacket could come with that
mumbo-jumbo printed every couple feet.
