    I Have the white output thing (left) and the blue output thing (right). But there is a black circle thing in the middle. What is it for? Can this be used to input video from say... a tv, video game system, camera, etc? If so what cable would I need to do so?

    My video card is a: Ati Sapphire Radeon 9550 256Mb 128bit video card

    thanks

    DVI (Digitial Video interface, think LCD monitors), SVideo connector (high quality regular video with no sound channel), and the normal VGA.
