1320979 2013-01-01 09:10:00 Yes, there must be two plugs for left and right audio as well. plod (107)
1320980 2013-01-02 01:40:00 The PS2 will probably have composite cables - Red, White & Yellow. Ignore the RGB connectors on your TV - they are for a 5 cable component video connection. Greven (91)

If the tv has only has component ports I am buggered?

say 'BUGGER!' then google 'RGB to composite video converter'

1320983 2013-01-02 02:16:00 The yellow to yellow, left audio to left audio(usually white, sometimes black), right audio to right audio(red audio).
Done.
Unless the sound in, is a different plug...

1320984 2013-01-03 09:28:00 A lot of TVs have a combo port that can be used for either type of connection - that is why you have the spare yellow port under the RGB ports. Plug the red/white audio into the component red/white audio plugs usually found beside the RGB ports.

The alternative is buy a PS2 component cable off trademe - they should be fairly cheap.

Probably better off (cheaper) just getting an RGB \ Component video cable for PS2 like Greven said
