S-Video or RCA to RGBHV?

Hello.  I have a NEC 4010 LCD which only has a VGA, DVI and RGBHV BNC inputs on it.  I have a series one Tivo that I would like to use with this LCD.  The Tivo only has RCA and S-Video outputs.

How would I go about connecting the Tivo to the LCD?  I have some RCA to BNC connectors as well.

This is a link to the LCD.  I know it shows it as having s-video input, this one I have definitely does not.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Can you take a photo of your input panel?  It's hard to believe you don't have composite input on there somewhere.

Regardless, S1 isn't going to look very good, it's time for a TivoHD upgrade, as long as there is component video on there, which should be the case given the specs/manual.

Thanks for the reply.  I'm not at the LCD right now, but I can definitely say for certain that there are no other inputs other than VGA, DVI and the RGBHV connections.  The Tivo only has composite and s-video output.

This setup is in my basement and basically a record only unit which is why I'm not looking to upgrade it yet.

Thanks

Absolutely sure no component video, no BNC composite connection?  I'd like to see a photo, as this contradicts the manual + specs.  Without those you are looking at some rather expensive converter devices.

I'll take a photo when I get home.  That link I sent was the closest I could find.  The one I have must be a variation of that model.  This is not a TV as it does not have a tuner built in.  It's basically a 40" computer monitor.

The cheapest converters are probably those sold by AV Toolbox.   http://www.avtoolbox.com/upconpage.shtml 

I had one years ago and it was decent for the price.  Anything else is going to cost a fortune.
